In an intense 12-inning battle, Jazz Chisholm Jr. powered the New York Yankees to a 7-6 victory over the Philadelphia Phillies, marking the Yankees’ first four-game winning streak since June.
Chisholm, who recently joined the Yankees from the Miami Marlins, shined with five RBIs, including two home runs for the second consecutive game.
His first homer came off Aaron Nola in the sixth inning, followed by a three-run blast in the seventh, putting New York ahead 5-4. Chisholm’s flair was evident as he celebrated with exuberance, earning praise from manager Aaron Boone for embracing the pressure of the Yankees’ spotlight.
The game saw further drama as the Phillies tied it in the ninth and again in the 11th. However, Gleyber Torres’ sacrifice fly in the 12th secured the win.
Michael Tonkin closed the game with a flawless inning, leaving the Phillies to suffer their third three-game losing streak of the season. The victory continues the Yankees’ resurgence as they chase postseason aspirations.
