NEW YORK \u2014\u00a0Ryan McMahon hit a go-ahead single in the seventh inning, Carlos Rod\u00f3n combined with three relievers on a two-hitter and the New York Yankees beat the Cleveland Guardians 2-1 Thursday to salvage the finale of a three-game series that star Aaron Judge missed.<\/p>\n
New York manager Aaron Boone said before the game that the team was awaiting an update on Judge, who has a bruised rib on his right side that is causing shoulder pain. After the game, Boone said they were still awaiting an update from a specialist in Texas.<\/p>\n
Jazz Chisholm Jr. hit a tying sacrifice fly in the fourth and started the seventh-inning rally with a one-out walk from Codi Heuer (0-1). Chisholm stole second and advanced to third on a wild pitch during consecutive pitches, then scored on McMahon’s single as the Yankees went on to win for the seventh time in 10 games.<\/p>\n
Rod\u00f3n allowed one run and two hits in six innings with seven strikeouts and three walks. Stuart Fairchild hit an RBI single in the fourth.<\/p>\n
Brett Headrick (4-1) pitched the seventh, and Fernando Cruz tossed a perfect eighth. David Bednar got three groundouts for his 13th save in 15 chances.<\/p>\n
Max Schuemann started in place of Judge and made a pair of nice plays in his first career start in right field. In the second, he charged in for a diving catch on Steven Kwan\u2019s sinking liner and five innings later, he made a leaping catch on Brayan Rocchio in front of the fence.<\/p>\n
Cleveland\u2019s Slade Cecconi allowed one run and four hits in six innings.<\/p>\n
