But Yankees hit ten home runs, usually with runners on. Cleveland hit five.

According to the Cleveland radio announcers, Judge and Stanton took extra batting practice before the games. A pitching machine was moved around to different locations, set at random speeds and movement. It sure helped Stanton.

Smart Yankees -- can't say they didn't earn the series win. They figured out Clase, hammered him, and pretty much neutralized Ramirez. And they pitched Cleveland really well. A steady diet of change-ups that bedeviled them all year.
