The Game that May Not End

The Brewers score twice in the top of the twelfth inning, but Giancarlo Stanton leads off the bottom of the inning with a two-run homer to tie the game again. One of the great games of all time is tied at three in the twelfth.

Update: The next three Yankees go down, and the game goes to the thirteenth inning. New York has three runs on two hits, thanks in part to the ghost runner.

Update: The Brewers fail to score in the top of the thirteenth.

Update: Kyle Higashioka of the Yankees makes an adjustment at the plate in the bottom of the thirteenth. He moved a bit closer to the plate, which caused Brewer catcher Victor Caratini to make a mound visit. On the next pitch, Higashioka moves closer again and lines the pitch into the leftfield corner for a 4-3 Yankees win.

What a great game. A heart breaking loss for the Brewers. They dominated the Yankees hitters, but New York came through with the game on the line twice, and wins the contest.
