    Domínguez hits walk-off homer as Yankees beat Rangers

    NEW YORK — Despite mustering just two runs over seven innings against Jacob deGrom, the Yankees picked up a walk-off, 4-3 win over the Rangers at Yankee Stadium on Wednesday.

    Jasson Domínguez delivered in the clutch, ending the game with a solo blast off Luke Jackson with one out in the ninth inning. The homer, the Martian’s sixth of the year, secured a series win for the Yanks and brought an explosive end to what had previously been a pitching duel.

    Earlier, deGrom put Texas in strong position for a win, as the ex-Met allowed just two earned runs over seven innings in his return to New York. He also totaled three hits, one walk and nine strikeouts over 103 pitches after manager Aaron Boone said pregame that the Yankees would have “our hands full and work cut out for us” against the two-time Cy Young winner.

    The Yankees’ first run off deGrom came in the second inning, as DJ LeMahieu plated Anthony Volpe, who started the inning by smoking a triple off the glove of a diving Sam Haggerty in center field.

    DeGrom didn’t permit another baserunner until the seventh inning, when the red-hot Cody Bellinger ripped a solo shot to right, extending his career-high hitting streak to 15 games.

    With Jackson pitching in the eighth, Aaron Judge then tied the game at three with a two-out, RBI single that saw Trent Grisham get thrown out at third to end the inning.

    While deGrom was firing a fastball that averaged 98.4 mph, a nasty slider, a change-up and a curve, the Rangers had their own troubles against a much different pitcher.

    Ryan Yarbrough continued to deliver for the Yankees, holding Texas to one run — a Jake Burger solo shot in the fifth — over five innings. The side-arming, junk-balling lefty allowed only three hits while walking none and striking out eight over 81 pitches.

    The veteran swingman, signed at the very end of spring training for a guarantee of $2 million, now has a 3.38 ERA for the season and a 1.93 ERA over his last five outings.

    “I look at him and think I wouldn’t have liked facing him,” Boone said of Yarbrough. “He’s tall. He’s kind of elbows, knees and throwing everything at you in his delivery. There’s some deception to it. It’s obviously not overpowering, but it’s under what these guys are used to seeing.

    “He’s throwing the kitchen sink at you while having some deception to him, some funkiness to him.”

    While Yarbrough shined, Burger clubbed another bases-empty blast off Tim Hill in the seventh. Haggerty then took the struggling Ian Hamilton deep before the inning ended.

    The Rangers threatened again in the ninth when Haggerty led off with a single and forced Luke Weaver into the game. With two outs, he then tried to steal second, only to be thrown out on a pickoff throw from Weaver. Haggerty was initially deemed safe on the bang-bang play at second — enraging Boone — but replay review overturned the call and brought the inning to an end.

    Then Domínguez delivered.

    Now the Yankees will try for a series sweep Thursday afternoon — weather permitting — before the heading west to Colorado.

    Carlos Rodón will start the finale for the Yankees, while ex-Yankee Nathan Eovaldi will take the ball for Texas.
