KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Turns out that Yankees third baseman Jazz Chisholm Jr. is just fine playing the role of playoff villain. He made headlines after New York dropped Game 2 of its AL Division Series to the Royals when he said they "just got lucky." And the sellout crowd of 40,312 that greeted him in Kansas City for Game 3 made sure to remind him of it, booing him lustily every time he touched the ball or stepped to the plate. The Yankees won 3-2 behind an eighth-inning homer by Giancarlo Stanton and a masterful performance by their bullpen. They will try to clinch the series on Thursday night.
