Brendan Ryan scored on a wild pitch before John Ryan Murphy capped a two-run 13th inning with an RBI single, and the New York Yankees beat the Cubs 4-2 Wednesday.
With the news surrounding starting pitcher CC Sabathia and outfielder Carlos Beltran getting worse seemingly by the day, the Yankees are growing accustomed to disappointment. The latest revelation on reliever Shawn Kelley isn't good, either.
"I like Chicago," Derek Jeter said Tuesday. And he surely liked his gift from the Wrigley Field scoreboard. But it didn't look like he enjoyed the weather.
The Chicago Cubs were an unlikely team to snap Masahiro Tanaka's unbeaten streak with the worst record in the majors coming into the game. This time, the long shot prevailed.
Carlos Beltran has decided to roll the dice, knowing full well if this gamble fails he's going to miss significant time.
Is next year's starting shortstop on the current Yankees roster? "I would say no," Cashman told Joe & Evan.
The Chicago Cubs saw firsthand last month why they couldn't afford Masahiro Tanaka. Things don't expect to be any easier for them Tuesday night.
Carlos Beltran has acknowledged that if he is unable to play through the pain in his right elbow, surgery is an option. The likelihood is that if he does give it a go, it won't be for long.
There is just no way around it, the Yankees are going to need some help.
The game will be made up as the second game of a doubleheader Sunday. The opener is scheduled to begin at 1:05 p.m.

Already ravaged by injuries to three of their starting pitchers and a key reliever, the Yankees were dealt another blow on Thursday when slugger Carlos Beltran was placed on the 15-day disabled list with elbow inflammation.
I would expect Sabathia to be out of action for longer than the 15 days dictated by his being on the DL. If he comes back right when he's eligible, he'll certainly not yet be at 100 percent and his velocity will likely be an issue.
"There are degenerative changes in his knee," Yankees general manager Brian Cashman said. "He is going to receive an injection of cortisone and stem cell to try and deal with this."
Rafael Montero was simply outpitched in his major league debut by a fellow rookie with a much bigger contract. "You've just got to admit it, that's a good pitcher," Montero said of Masahiro Tanaka.
It's fitting that both teams are 19-19, mediocre records for a sterile series.
CC Sabathia, now on the DL due to an accumulation of fluid in his right knee, is reportedly likely to undergo another MRI after having the knee drained on Monday.
We all know about Masahiro Tanaka. In fact, we have known about him and his magical splitter for months and months. The guy we don't know about may be the real treat of this game.
The Yankees manager has no idea why home plate umpire Jerry Layne was so quick with the hook in Tuesday's loss to the Mets. "I'm shocked. I'm still shocked," Girardi said.
The eight-time All-Star, who departed the opener of the Subway Series at Yankee Stadium on Monday night, had a cortisone shot after the game. He's currently listed as day to day and is hoping that the pain goes away.
