Caballero's tiebreaking double in the 10th lifts Rays past Yankees

NEW YORK — José Caballero hit a go-ahead double in the 10th inning and the Tampa Bay Rays beat the New York Yankees 2-0 on Saturday.

Caballero opened the 10th by lining an 0-2 fastball from Caleb Ferguson (0-3) over center fielder Alex Verdugo to easily score automatic runner Richie Palacios. Caballero stole third and scored on a single by former Yankee Ben Rortvedt.

"I was just trying to go the other way. I wanted to knock him in," said Caballero, who got his first career go-ahead hit in extra innings and was given the green light to steal third.
