""They robbed a two-run homer," manager Aaron Boone said. "Taking the homer back, that would have been a little lead extender.""
""The way (Tauchman) was going at it, I thought it was going to be short of the wall, the way he was tracking it," Boone said. "He must have been just timing his steps up really well and ends up making a really good play there.""
""If Tauchman's in center, if he's in right, left, it doesn't matter," Yankees captain Aaron Judge said. "That's the one guy you don't want to hit it to. I've seen him make a lot of impressive plays over the years, especially in pinstripes with us and then when he went to the Giants and here. "I hated seeing it to be honest, but that guy's a ballplayer.""
Chicago had a violent weekend with five people killed and 34 injured in shootings, including a drive-in shooting near the Southside ballpark that wounded seven. The White Sox defeated the Yankees 3-2, ending New York's seven-game winning streak. Giancarlo Stanton hit a third-inning flyball that would have been a two-run homer, but White Sox right fielder Mike Tauchman reached over the right-field wall to rob the homer. Cody Bellinger had an RBI double in the third. Lenyn Sosa homered in the eighth off Tim Hill to break a 2-2 tie. Mike Vasil pitched a scoreless ninth and the final out was a Bellinger strikeout looking with Trent Grisham on second. Aaron Boone and Aaron Judge praised Tauchman's defensive timing and play.
