New York Beats Oakland, 8-6
Getting offensive support from Will Taylor, the New York Yankees topped the Oakland Athletics, 8-6. Taylor was 2-2 with 2 singles and 3 walks. He scored 2 runs for the Yankees. Will Brian, who finished 4th in the AL in saves with 36 in 2028, earned the save for New York. The win puts New York at 47-70.

New York used a clutch at-bat from Chris Lovegrove to capture the win. The first baseman hammered a grand slam home run in the top of the second inning to put the Yankees ahead, 7-2. It was his lone hit in 4 at-bats, but it was a humdinger.

"Winning is hard sometimes," said Yankees manager Dave Roberts. "This one was nice to get."
