He walked and after Aaron Hicks struck out, scored on Judge\u2019s double to give the Yankees a two-run lead.<\/p>\n<p>He came up again in the fifth after Gio Urshela started the inning with a walk off Scherzer. The lefty-swinging Wade laid down a terrific bunt second baseman Starlin Castro couldn\u2019t handle for an infield single that set up another Yankees rally, as Gleyber Torres drew a two-out walk and Giancarlo Stanton delivered a run-scoring single to right<\/p>\n<p>The <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/game\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"7\" title=\"Game\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">game<\/a> provided a glimpse of what the Yankees hope to get from the 25-year-old Wade, who also can fill in at shortstop, third base and the outfield.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI think he\u2019s got it in him to be a guy that controls the strike zone, which is critical for him,\u2019\u2019 Aaron Boone said. \u201cNot chasing [pitches] is the difference for him being a really good major league player or struggling. With his speed- obviously we saw the bunt game come into play tonight- he\u2019s a special kind of baserunner.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>And with the new rule where teams start extra innings with a runner on second base, Wade likely will be the primary option.<\/p>\n<p>If everyone is healthy, Wade\u2019s at-bats will be limited. But in this bizarre, 60-game season, Wade\u2019s ability to roam around the field and fly around the bases will be extremely important. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cIf he can get on base enough, he\u2019s a guy who can affect the game,\u2019\u2019 Boone said. \u201cWith his versatility, he has a chance to be really valuable for us this year.\u201d\n            <\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>If you want to read more Sports <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/news\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"2\" title=\"News\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">News<\/a> articles, you can visit our <span style=\"color: #ff9900;\"><a style=\"color: #ff9900;\" href=\"https:\/\/en.buradabiliyorum.com\/general\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">General category.<\/a><\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>if you want to <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/watch-movies-tv-seriess\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"8\" title=\"Watch Movies &amp; TV Series\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">watch Movies<\/a> or Tv Shows go to <span style=\"color: #ff9900;\"><a style=\"color: #ff9900;\" href=\"https:\/\/dizi.buradabiliyorum.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Dizi.BuradaBiliyorum.Com<\/a> <\/span> for forums sites go to <span style=\"color: #ff9900;\"><a style=\"color: #ff9900;\" href=\"https:\/\/forum.buradabiliyorum.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Forum.BuradaBiliyorum.Com<\/a><\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><span style=\"color: black;\"><a style=\"color: #ff9900;\" href=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/2020\/07\/24\/yankees-tyler-wade-steps-up-in-dj-lemahieus-absence\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Source<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8220;#Yankees\u2019 Tyler Wade steps up in DJ LeMahieu\u2019s absence&#8221; July 24, 2020 | 2:58am When Aaron Judge doubled to left in the top of the third on Thursday night, he saw a familiar sight: Tyler Wade racing around the bases from first to score. \u201cI was joking with him after he scored for me from&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":33525,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"fifu_image_url":"","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[43496],"class_list":["post-33524","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-general","tag-yankees-tyler-wade-steps-up-in-dj-lemahieus-absence"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/33524","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=33524"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/33524\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/33525"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=33524"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=33524"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=33524"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
