Claim 1: “The Yankees’ ace, Cam Schlittler, allowed just one run — a Juan Soto homer — in 6 ²/₃ innings on the mound, in the 5-2 Game 1 victory.”

DISPUTED

While web search results confirm Cam Schlittler won Game 1 in a 5-2 victory, they contradict the specific detail about the run allowed. One source states he carried a 'one-hit shutout into the seventh inning', which contradicts the claim that he allowed a Juan Soto home run.
