Captain clutch: Aaron Judge walk-off completes stunning Yankees comeback

New York's ferocious comeback started in the bottom of the eighth inning when Jazz Chisholm Jr. recorded the first hit of the game for the Yankees.

That was followed by a sac fly from Austin Wells and a pinch-hit two-run home run from Giancarlo Stanton to make it a 5-3 game headed to the ninth inning.

Seattle brought in former All-Star closer Andres Munoz for the save, and he was not able to get the job done. After allowing two hits and a walk, Wells delivered a game-tying two run single with two outs in the bottom of the ninth.

The comeback proved that despite being hitless through almost eight innings, the Yankees have one of the best lineups in baseball when things are going right.

The sweep of the Mariners carries New York into a showdown at Yankee Stadium this weekend against the NL Central-leading Chicago Cubs.

The three-game series between the Cubs and Yankees will be the final series before the All-Star break for both clubs.
