10/10/24 Full-blown brawl nearly happened in heated Yankees-Royals ALDS Game 4. In Game 4 of the ALDS matchup between the New York Yankees and the Kansas City Royals, tempers flared between the two teams after Royals third baseman Maikel Garcia slid in hard towards Yankees shortstop Anthony Volpe in a failed attempt to break up a double play. Garcia then had some words with Volpe, which then prompted the entire Yankees and Royals benches to clear in an effort to separate the two and prevent the skirmish from devolving into a full-blown altercation.

10/08/24 New York Yankees' Carlos Rodón Tosses Historic 1st Inning Before Falling Apart. Carlos Rodón opened Game 2 of the ALDS about as cleanly as he could have. The New York Yankees left-handed pitcher struck out Maikel Garcia on three pitches to open Monday night's showdown with the Kansas City Royals. Rodón came off the mound celebrating after each punchout, and considering the energy of the crowd and the historic nature of his performance to that point, his animated reactions felt warranted. According to MLB.com's Sarah Langs, Rodón became just the third pitcher in Yankees history to post a 1-2-3 first inning with three strikeouts in the postseason.

6/13/24 Garcia's game-ending hit off Holmes gives Royals 4-3 win over Yankees. Maikel Garcia hit a game-ending two run double off Yankees closer Clay Holmes, and the Kansas City Royals recovered after squandering a brilliant start by Alec Marsh to beat New York 4-3 and avoid a four-game sweep. Marsh took a no-hit bid into the seventh inning against the major league-best Yankees, who had outscored the Royals 25-8 in the first three games of the series. He allowed Juan Soto’s leadoff single in that frame and then retired the next three batters to conclude his 96-pitch outing.
