Led by George Lombard Jr., the Yanks came alive against the Rays bullpen just in time to win three of four.
The New York Yankees staged an impressive comeback to defeat the Tampa Bay Rays 6-4 at Yankee Stadium on September 24, 2026.

George Lombard Jr. was the star of the show, hitting a go-ahead two-run double and driving in three runs while also committing an impressive slide to score a run in the seventh inning.
