Dave Stewart scattered 8 hits and walked 5, but only allowed one run as the 1990 Oakland Athletics knocked the 1998 New York Yankees out of the Winner’s Bracket. José Canseco and Mark McGwire hit back-to-back home runs in the 1st inning off David Wells. Terry Steinbach added another solo homer in the 2nd. McGwire hit another homer in the 6th and has now hit 7 homers in 9 games of the Tournament. Wells has struggled, allowing 7 home runs in his 2 starts. He allowed just 6 hits and struck out 8 today. The New York offense had several chances to get back in the game, but came up short, stranding 7 runners in scoring position over 5 different innings. The Yankees will look to regroup in the Loser’s Bracket in a rematch with the 1993 Toronto Blue Jays. Dennis Eckersley picked up his 1st save of the tournament, shutting down any comeback hopes after Scott Brosius walked and Chuck Knoblauch singled to lead off the 9th.
