Giancarlo Stanton received a warm welcome while barreling a couple of balls in his return to Marlins Park, but the theatrics were reserved for Chad Green and A.J. Cole, who escaped a pair of bases-loaded jams to set up Miguel Andujar’s go-ahead sacrifice fly in the Yankees’ 2-1, 12-inning victory over the Marlins on Tuesday evening.
With the winning run dancing 90 feet from home plate, Green recorded a strikeout and a fielder’s choice before exhaling in the ninth, then Cole wriggled free from a none-out mess in the 11th by getting a fielder’s choice, strikeout and foul pop. Andujar ensured that their efforts were rewarded, driving home Kyle Higashioka with a fly ball to left off Javy Guerra.
