Tuesday night, Carlos Rodon did what he almost always has during his career against Cleveland.

And what he’s been doing with regularity the better part of the last 1  1⁄2 months.

Pitch like an ace.

The veteran lefthander, taking the mound a full week after his last outing, continued one of the best stretches of his career with seven terrific innings in a 3-2 victory over the Guardians in front of 40,683 at the Stadium.

“It was seven pretty dominant seven innings I thought,” Aaron Boone said after Rodon allowed one run, five hits and a walk over a 93-pitch outing in which he struck out eight.

A Yankees’ bullpen that, for at least the next month, will be without closer Luke Weaver — placed on the IL Tuesday afternoon with a left hamstring strain — made it interesting.

Meaning, of course, Devin Williams.

After Mark Leiter Jr. threw a scoreless eighth, Williams, who lost his closer’s job in late April to Weaver but had pitched well since then, allowed a one-out double to Carlos Santana, who put up a tough nine-pitch at-bat. Daniel Schneemann’s ground ball two-out RBI single to right made it 3-2 With Bo Naylor up, Schneemann stole second but Naylor flied softly to left to end it.

“I feel really good. I feel confident,” said Williams, who did not allow a run in 13 of 15 outings after being removed as closer. “I felt really good tonight. Santana put up a really good at-bat there, [they] found some holes. But I felt good overall.”

Boone reiterated after the game what he said before it: he feels more than confident with Williams, a two-time All-Star with the Brewers, closing.

“I think he’s in a really good place and, I think, throwing the ball the way that will allow him to excel in the [closer’s] role,” Boone said.

Rodon, now 7-0 with a 1.27 ERA over his last nine starts, allowed back-to-back one-out singles in the first to Angel Martinez and Jose Ramirez. He then retired 17 straight, with Ramirez snapping that streak with a leadoff single in the seventh.

“These guys make it easy,” Rodon said. “I mean, offensively we’re so good. I just know I have to get outs, and eventually we’re going to score more than a few runs. And defensively all year we’ve been so great. It makes it easy to pitch.”

The Yankees (37-22) did have a relatively quiet night at the plate, but got a home run from Jazz Chisholm Jr., activated from the IL earlier in the day, leading off the seventh inning that snapped a 1-1 tie. Anthony Volpe made it back-to-back shots off Cleveland righthander Tanner Bibee to make it 3-1. Bibee, who retired the first 11 batters he faced before Aaron Judge walked with two outs in the fourth and who did not allow a hit until Chisholm singled with one out in the fifth, allowed three runs and four hits over 6  1⁄3 innings.

Rodon (8-3, 2.49 ERA), a longtime member of one of the Guardians’ AL Central rivals, the White Sox, came into the night 9-5 with a 2.66 ERA in 22 games (20 starts) against Cleveland.

After scoreless outings in his previous two starts — against the Rangers and Angels — Rodon brought a 20-inning scoreless inning streak into Tuesday’s seventh inning before David Fry’s RBI single. The Yankees took a 1-0 lead in the fifth on DJ LeMahieu’s two-out RBI single.

“That’s what we’re getting used to, and what we have been used to, from him,” Volpe said of Rodon’s excellence. “When you’re out there at shortstop and you’re seeing him execute like that, it’s fun.”
