Yankees Avoid World Series Sweep with Game 4 Comeback

WORLD SERIES GAME 4 | The Yankees found the spark they needed in Game 4 of the World Series on Tuesday night, rallying for an 11-4 win that kept their championship hopes alive as they now trail three games to one. Anthony Volpe delivered a stellar performance, driving in four RBIs and stealing two bases—a feat never before accomplished in World Series history. Reflecting on the team’s resilience, Volpe commented, “We’ve been through so much the whole year. We’re not going to go down easy at all.”

While the game’s scoring kicked off with a Freddie Freeman home run, a thrilling accomplishment that tied him with Astros’ George Springer as one of only two players to homer in four consecutive World Series games, Volpe’s third-inning grand slam stole the show. With a powerful hit over the left-field wall, Volpe electrified the Bronx, giving the Yankees a 5-2 lead that set the tone for the rest of the game.
