The New York Yankees secured a thrilling 6-5 victory over the Arizona Diamondbacks in an 11-inning game, marking a strong start to their season with a 6-1 record. The game concluded dramatically as the Diamondbacks, having exhausted their bench, were forced to send relief pitcher Scott McGough to bat with the bases loaded, ultimately striking out looking to end the game. Aaron Judge contributed significantly to the Yankees' win in the desert, hitting his first home run of the season and driving in 3 RBIs. The victory wrapped up a successful road trip for the Yankees, who are now looking forward to their home opener against the Blue Jays.
