Fortunately for the new Yankees, an Anthony Volpe homer tied the game again in the eighth inning and a ninth-inning rally gave them a two-run lead. Two more trade deadline acquisitions, third baseman Ryan McMahon and Caballero, scored those ninth-inning runs.

Help is on the way for the New York Yankees bullpen. General manager Brian Cashman landed three high-leverage relievers before the trade deadline, picking up David Bednar from the Pittsburgh Pirates, Jake Bird from the Colorado Rockies and Camilo Doval from the San Francisco Giants.

Doval was sent down to Triple A last season amid struggles but had rebounded this year to regain the Giants' closer role.
