Overview

  • The Yankees were blanked in each game of a three-game series at Fenway Park, managing just four runs and dropping all three matchups to Boston.
  • Aaron Judge went 1-for-12 with three or more strikeouts in each game for the first time in his career, and he said his lack of plate discipline led him to chase pitches outside the strike zone.
  • Manager Aaron Boone described the sweep as a fleeting setback and credited the pitching staff while urging the offense to improve.
  • The club has been hampered by injuries to starters Gerrit Cole and Giancarlo Stanton with Stanton expected to return this week to bolster the lineup.
  • Despite the losses, New York maintains a 3.5-game lead atop the AL East and now prepares for a four-game home series against the Los Angeles Angels.
