“Want to dominate at home”: New York Yankees achieve perfect homestand

New York Yankees players

New York Yankees are persistent to own the ballpark in the Bronx. They mark their sixth straight walk-off win of the season, completing a perfect homestand with a 5-4 victory over the Tigers on Sunday afternoon at Yankee Stadium.

The New York Yankees established their level of understanding of the game once again while doing the little things correctly. They were belligerent with their baserunning which turned out to be the difference between a frustrating loss to the Detroit Tigers. The New York Mets made their spirits soar high in the 10-inning (5-4) victory.

Anthony Rizzo was put a question to, for which he answered, “We want to dominate at home, the more we dominate here, the more this city is going to buzz and the fan base is going to buzz. I know from experience, coming into New York and playing here, the lights shine brighter and the fans are into it. It’s definitely intimidating when you’re on the other side.”

“Some winning things happened,” manager Aaron Boone said. “Just a lot of guys with a hand in a victory again.”

“I think we’re just playing good baseball,” Josh Donaldson said when asked about their win, “Our pitching really set the tone early for this series. We just didn’t give them much at all. Today they showed some fight like we knew that they would. We were able to scrap out runs in a couple of different ways today, which is nice to see.”
