Yankees’ David Bednar Didn’t Accept Aaron Boone’s Decision, Then Saved Day in Heroic Fashion

TARRANT COUNTY, TEXAS, AUG 6 – The Yankees secured a narrow victory at the Rangers' home stadium, improving their regular season record in a closely contested 3-2 game.

  • The New York Yankees defeated the Texas Rangers 3-2 on August 6, 2025, in Arlington, ending a five-game losing streak.
  • Paul Goldschmidt delivered a pinch-hit solo homer off left-handed reliever Robert Garcia during the seventh, propelling the Yankees into the lead.
  • Mark Leiter Jr. earned the win after pitching in the sixth, supported by relievers Tim Hill, Yerry De los Santos, and David Bednar, who recorded his 18th save with five strikeouts in 1 2/3 innings.
  • The Yankees took a 2-1 lead in the fourth inning when Anthony Volpe drove in a run with a single, followed by another run scoring during a double steal that resulted from catcher Kyle Higashioka’s throwing error, and Bednar closed the game by striking out Adolis Garcia.
  • The Yankees’ victory prevented them from being swept in Texas for the first time in over a decade and maintained their slim lead of half a game over the Rangers for the American League’s final wild-card spot.
