In a dramatic turn of events at Yankee Stadium, the New York Yankees secured a 2-1 victory over the Detroit Tigers with a walk-off single by Anthony Rizzo. The game was tied in the bottom of the ninth inning thanks to a crucial double by Giancarlo Stanton. Despite being booed in his previous at-bat, Stanton's hit set the stage for Rizzo's game-winning single. The Yankees had been scoreless for the first eight innings, managing to rally in the ninth to clinch the win. This victory was influenced by some questionable managerial decisions from the Tigers' AJ Hinch, including excessive pitching changes and not walking Rizzo when the opportunity arose.
Goodnight from the Bronx 👏 #walkoff https://t.co/NMXksuUOBQ
Jason Foley’s 1.32 ERA meant nothing to me tonight, headed into the 9th inning. I knew he’d blow it. Foley doesn’t have the chops to be a closer. #Tigers

RIZZO WALKOFF! 🔥 (via @Yankees) https://t.co/GHVf9dGFa7
The HR Happy Yankees may have learned a lesson tonight via Verdugo. Good things happen when you properly execute a bunt.

Every one of us Yankees fans knew we were winning that game. Life all day. Explosive offense.
What a boneheaded managerial move by AJ Hinch. No reason not to walk Rizzo. But hey, I’ll take it.
Assist to over-managing AJ Hinch tonight for too many pitching changes. But give Stanton credit for that double as Yankees walk off Tigers, 2-1
RIZZO WALKS IT OFF FOR THE YANKEES https://t.co/oygss1iB2F
That’s gotta be the most dead 8 innings that led to a walk-off I’ve seen from the Yanks. What a twist ending.
Walk it off, Rizzo 🤌 https://t.co/B0zouPDUml
