Juan Soto gives Yankees rallying cry after latest offensive one-man show: ‘It ain’t over yet’
NY Post
LOS ANGELES — Juan Soto was practically a one-man show for the Yankees on Saturday, with his solo shot off Yoshinobu Yamamoto the lone hit off the Dodgers starter.
His ninth-inning single started the only rally the meek Yankees offense produced in a 4-2 loss in Game 2 of the World Series at Dodger Stadium.
“It’s a tough start, but it ain’t over yet,’’ Soto said of the 2-0 hole.
Soto has been every bit as good in the postseason as he was during his superb regular season in The Bronx, but so far, it hasn’t been enough for the Yankees in this World Series.
He came up with two outs in the top of the third and sent a 105 mph screamer over the right-field wall to tie the game at 1-1.
Soto flexed toward the Yankees dugout on the first-base side before circling the bases, and the Yankees appeared to be back in the game.
Just to get the formalities out of the way, Juan Soto officially declined the qualifying offer by Tuesday’s deadline.
