The New York Yankees started the Division Series in dominant fashion, blowing out the host Oakland Athletics at Oakland Coliseum by a score of 10-4 and securing an early 1-0 lead in the best-of-5 series. Yankees right fielder Starling Marte was 3 for 4 with 2 doubles and a walk, while scoring 2 and driving in 2.

Wilmer Flores was 1 for 1 with a double. He drove in 2 runs and scored once against the Athletics. With the game tied in the top of the seventh inning, he hit a sacrifice fly that put New York in front, 5-4.

"You need to show up when your number's called," said Marte.
