[...] yet the series ended Thursday with New York somehow earning a split when Headley scampered home on a passed ball for his team's second straight victory in the bottom of the ninth. Didi Gregorius, who had the winning home run hours earlier when the Yankees rallied from a four-run ninth-inning deficit Wednesday night, hit a solo shot in the fifth to tie the score. In what manager Joe Girardi called his best outing of the season, Pineda was sharp after a shaky first inning, when Choo crushed the fourth pitch of the game for his 18th career leadoff homer. Pineda struck out Rougned Odor with two runners on to prevent further damage, and he didn't allow a hit the rest of the way — reaching what is a magical six-inning mark for Yankees starters because of their trio of hard-throwing relievers. Both pitchers struck out the side in the second, and overall nine straight batters struck out from the bottom of the first through the top of the third. On Monday, the Yankees blew a ninth-inning lead after a 3½-hour rain delay, and the game didn't end until 2:44 a.m.
