Even when you\u2019re great like him, this game will do that to you,\u201d Boone said. \u201cYou got to be able to battle through it, and we\u2019ll be there and try to support him through this. We know how important a role he\u2019s still going to play for us.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Before the game, Boone said he would be using Green or Jonathan Loaisiga as his closer until Aroldis Chapman (left elbow inflammation) was ready to return. Britton had blown two of his three save opportunities \u2014 he allowed Tim Anderson\u2019s walk-off homer in Thursday\u2019s \u201cField of Dreams\u201d game \u2014 and had struggled immensely during his injury-fractured season.

He retired just one of the four batters he faced, allowing one hit and two walks, and left with the bases loaded and one out. Boone said the Yankees would take a look at Britton physically, but he believes the left-hander is healthy.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI know no one is going to work harder than Zack at this,\u201d Boone said.<\/p>\n<p>Until Green\u2019s blown save, it looked like the Yankees were going to stay away from the struggling Britton. Boone went to southpaw Wandy Peralta with two on and two outs in the seventh. Peralta got Yoan Moncada to ground out to end the threat and was lifted with two outs in the eighth for Green.<\/p>\n<p>        <iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Podcast\" width=\"100%\" height=\"188px\" src=\"https:\/\/embed.acast.com\/pinstripe-pod\/fieldofdreamsgame-baseballmoviesfeat.kendavidoff?accentColor=2a2a2a&amp;bgColor=f6f6f6&amp;font-family=proxima%20nova&amp;logo=false&amp;secondaryColor=cc3333\" scrolling=\"no\" frameborder=\"0\" style=\"border:none;overflow:hidden;\"><br \/>\n        <\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>But after the Yankees scored three runs in the 10th, and had already used Green and Loaisiga, Boone called upon Britton.
