Recap: Cleveland Guardians VS New York Yankees 2025-06-05

"The Bronx Bombers are back, baby! The New York Yankees shut out the Cleveland Guardians 4-0 in the rubber match of their three-game series at Yankee Stadium. Carlos Rodón was dealing on the mound, and the Yankees' offense finally found its groove, taking advantage of Tanner Bibee's struggles to miss bats.

Jose Ramirez and the Guardians' bats were silenced, while Aaron Judge and the Yankees' sluggers made some noise. The Yankees' second-best team slugging percentage in the majors (.463) proved to be too much for the Guardians to handle.

The Yankees' 19-10 home record got a boost, and they're looking like strong contenders to defend their American League title. Max Fried wasn't even needed, as Rodón took the reins and led the team to victory.

If you bet on the Yankees at -267, you're looking pretty smart right now. The Guardians, on the other hand, couldn't capitalize on their chances, and their +216 odds didn't quite pay off. Chisholm's return to the lineup was a welcome sight for the Yankees, and DJ LeMahieu's presence at second base was a bonus.

The final score: Yankees 4, Guardians 0. The Yankees are back on track, and the Guardians are left to regroup. Until next time, folks!"
