Ben Rice hit a tiebreaking home run in the 10th inning as the New York Yankees defeated the Toronto Blue Jays 4-3 on Sunday, according to ESPN. The victory allowed the Yankees to avoid a three-game sweep and snap a three-game losing streak, per Yahoo Sports.
Rice's heroics came after he committed an error in the ninth inning that had threatened to blow the game. The miscue set up late drama, but Rice answered with the go-ahead homer in extras to salvage the series finale.
Yankees starter Ryan Weathers was again dominant, allowing one run over 7.1 innings, per Pinstripe Alley. The Yankees' offense continued to struggle throughout much of the afternoon, though ultimately managed enough production to escape Toronto with a win.
