NEW YORK — Giancarlo Stanton hit a tying double in the ninth inning and Anthony Rizzo followed with a game-winning single to give the New York Yankees a 2-1 victory over the Detroit Tigers. Shut out on two hits for eight innings, the Yankees got four in a row off closer Jason Foley to start and finish the bottom of the ninth. Aaron Judge opened the inning with a single and advanced to second on Alex Verdugo's bunt single. Stanton, who struck out his previous three times up, lined an opposite-field double into the right-field corner, leaving runners at second and third. Rizzo then grounded a single through a drawn-in infield beyond the glove of diving second baseman Andy Ibáñez.
