ARLINGTON, Texas (AP) — The Yankees wrapped up their spring training series, defeating the Texas Rangers with a score of 3-2. A key moment of the meeting was a powerful hit by Paul Goldschmidt, which put the team ahead in the seventh inning.

Goldschmidt delivered a pitch that went over the field, allowing the Yankees to avoid a first-round exit, which would have been their first since 2010. This victory also helped the Yankees stay ahead of the Rangers in the battle for the last playoff spot in the American League.

Mark Leiter Jr. was the winning pitcher, coming in as a substitute in the sixth inning. David Bednar, who recently joined the team, recorded his first save for the Yankees, finishing the game with five strikeouts.

Despite the setback, the Rangers started with a tremendous hit from Ezekiel Duran, who became the best player of the team, starting with two home runs.

Key Moments

Bednar finished the game, striking out Adolis García with two outs on base. The Yankees may have a day off before starting a three-game series against the Houston Astros.
