Ryan McMahon and Ben Rice belted the blasts to defeat the Blue Jays, 5-4, at Yankee Stadium. It was another nervous ninth inning, but the Yankees prevailed.

With runners at second and third and a Toronto Blue Jays run already home, Camilo Doval got Kaz Okamoto to ground out to Anthony Volpe, sealing Tuesday night’s 5-4 win.

Doval was subbing as closer with both David Bednar and Fernando Cruz unavailable due to heavy workloads.

Ryan McMahon broke a personal 0-for-24 with a game-tying three-run homer off Dylan Cease in the fourth, setting up Ben Rice’s go-ahead, two-run homer in the fifth.

New York (30-19) has now won two games in a row and 2-0 on this current home trip.

The New York Knicks defeated the Cleveland Cavaliers 109-93.They now hold a 2-0 series lead as they head to Cleveland.

The Knicks went up by double-digits in the second half and then, unlike the Cleveland Cavaliers in Game 1, held on for a  win. 

New York had all the momentum, plus home-court advantage, after outscoring Cleveland 44-11 to close out the series opener. The Cavaliers appeared to have shaken off that mortifying outcome in the first half, but it all fell apart early in the third quarter.

Josh Hart had a playoff career-high 26 points on 10-of-21 shooting (5-of-11 from 3-point range), plus seven assists and some aggressive defense against Cleveland’s backcourt.

The New York Knicks are out for domination. For the second year in a row, Jalen Brunson and Karl-Anthony Towns led the team to the Eastern Conference Finals. 

They proved that the Larry O’Brien trophy is merely the reward but the goal was to overpower their opponents. It showed in their 144-114 demolition of the Philadelphia 76ers which led to an insane 4-0 sweep. They even notched a historic net rating feat.

Game 4 between the Knicks and 76ers was over during the middle of the first quarter. Jalen Brunson and Karl-Anthony Towns saw their squad take over with a massive 19-point lead before the second quarter started. For most teams, it would all be a matter of closing out but the Knicks are different. They continued to steamroll Joel Embiid and Co.

By the end of their 144-114 domination, the Knicks secured a 20.3 net rating in the NBA Playoffs. This is the best net rating by a team in a single postseason run. They are also the sole owners of the record.

The Pittsburgh Steelers don’t have an answer yet from Aaron Rodgers on what his plans are, but their new coach is well aware of the kind of story it would be.

Mike McCarthy, who coached Rodgers with the Green Bay Packers from 2006 to 2018, is all for a reunion story. “Yes, it’d be a great story,” McCarthy.

Kevin Harlan asked the first-year Steelers coach about a possible reunion with Rodgers. 

McCarthy said. “It’s really cool to see Aaron at 42 and all that he’s been able to accomplish.”

Last season was Rodgers’ first with the Steelers, and he helped them to the AFC North title. Shortly after the season, coach Mike Tomlin stepped down and was replaced by McCarthy.
