Yankees Change Lineup For Braves Game 3 In World Series
The New York Yankees altered their lineup for Game 3 at Atlanta as Joe Torre benched Tino Martinez and started Cecil Fielder at first, bringing Darryl Strawberry back and swapping Paul O Neill out of right field. The moves paid off as New York defeated Atlanta 5 2 and extended its postseason road win streak. Fielder delivered an eighth inning double and defense helped early on, preserving a classic formula with a bullpen close.
