Brice Turang's Blast Helps Brewers Finish Sweep of Yankees
Brice Turang hit a 411-foot, three-run homer for his first big league walk-off as Milwaukee completed a rare sweep, the team said.
On Sunday, May 10, the Milwaukee Brewers completed a three-game sweep of the New York Yankees with a 4-3 victory. Brice Turang hit a 411-foot walk-off home run off closer David Bednar in the ninth inning.
Yankees starter Carlos Rodon made his season debut, holding Milwaukee hitless through 3 2/3 innings before the Brewers rallied in the fourth inning by capitalizing on the left-hander's wildness to erase a two-run deficit.
New York's Aaron Judge hit his league-leading 16th home run, a 373-foot solo shot in the first inning. Yankees prospect Spencer Jones recorded his first career hit with a second-inning RBI single.
Brewers reliever Abner Uribe earned the win with a scoreless ninth inning, securing Milwaukee's first series sweep of the Yankees of at least three games since August 1989.
The Brewers are off Monday before hosting the San Diego Padres for a three-game series, while the Yankees travel to Baltimore to open a three-game set against the Orioles.
