Yankees Commanding 2-0 Lead in ALCS

The New York Yankees have taken a commanding 2-0 lead in the American League Championship Series (ALCS) against the Cleveland Guardians. Aaron Judge broke his postseason homer drought with a crucial two-run home run in Game 2, leading the Yankees to a 6-3 victory. Despite a challenging postseason start, Judge's performance has been pivotal, contributing significantly alongside teammates like Gleyber Torres. Anthony Rizzo, returning from injury, also played a key role in the Yankees' successes, although he will sit out Game 3 against a left-handed pitcher. The Guardians, managed by first-year head coach Stephen Vogt, have shown resilience but have struggled against experienced postseason adversaries. The series now moves to Cleveland for Game 3, where the Yankees hope to extend their lead.
