Gary Sanchez's postseason slump is officially over. After cranking the go-ahead double in Game 4, Sanchez has driven in two more runs in Game 5. His solo home run in the seventh off Brad Peacock left the bat at 110.7 mph, according to Statcast™, and gave the Yankees a 5-0 lead.

7:48 p.m. ET: In Tanaka We Trust

Spotted a two-run lead, Yankees starter Masahiro Tanaka has made it stick through five. He wiggled out of a jam in the fifth, striking out George Springer and Josh Reddick with two men on to keep Houston off the board. Tanaka has allowed three hits with five strikeouts and one walk.

6:15 p.m. ET: Aaron adds on in third
The Yankees entered play today with no earned runs over their last 13 innings against Dallas Keuchel, a span that stretched two seasons. They scored two earned runs in three innings off Houston's ace lefty tonight. The second run came in the third, when Aaron Judge drove in Brett Gardner with a double grounded over the third-base bag to give New York a 2-0 lead.
 
Gardner motored from first to home in 10.36 seconds, his second fastest time of the season, as tracked by Statcast™. Judge now has three RBIs in his last four at-bats dating back to Game 4.

5:46 p.m. ET: Yanks strike first with two-out knocks
After the Astros squandered a scoring chance in the top of the second, New York got on the board against starter Dallas Keuchel. Keuchel retired the first two batters, but Starlin Castro laced a double to the wall in left-center field, and Greg Bird drove him in with an RBI single to right. It was the first run the Yankees have ever scored against Keuchel in the postseason and their first earned run against him overall since July 2016.

5:35 p.m. ET: Tanaka wriggles free
The Astros had a real chance to jump on the board in the second, after first baseman Yuli Gurriel drilled a leadoff double into the left-field corner, a nearly identical shot to his three-run laser in Game 4. But Yankees starter Masahiro Tanaka bore down, retiring the next three hitters on weak grounders to strand Gurriel and keep the game scoreless. New York played its infield in with one out and Gurriel on third, a strategy that saved a run when Carlos Beltran bounced out to second.
