Yankees Win by Slim Margin, 6-5
The Chicago Cubs got a superb performance from pitcher Caleb Kilian, but the New York Yankees still won the game, 6-5. Kilian threw 5.0 innings of 2-hit ball. The Yankees, at 85-58, sit in first place in the American League East Division.

The game was at a stalemate until third baseman Gleyber Torres came to bat in the top of the ninth. Facing Chicago pitcher Adbert Alzolay, he hit a first pitch fastball for a run-scoring single. It was a game-changer, putting New York on top, 6-5.

"We took advantage of our opportunities," Torres told the New York Daily News. "It's as simple as that."
