Judge's big league-high 14th homer sparks Yankees over Orioles 12-1 for sweep,
14th win in 16 games
NEW YORK (AP) --- Aaron Judge put New York ahead in the first inning with his
major league-leading 14th home run as part of a four-RBI night, and the Yankees
routed the Baltimore Orioles 12-1 on Monday for a four-game sweep and their
14th win in 16 games.
Judge drove a hanging, full-count knuckle-curve from Shane Baz (1-3) into the
Yankees bullpen in right-center for a 2-0 lead and added a two-run single in a
six-run eighth off Lou Trivino, who made his Orioles debut.
Judge leads the majors with six first-inning homers this year and has 91 in his
career, trailing only Babe Ruth's 126 and Mickey Mantle's 103 among Yankees.
The home run was Judge's 53rd in 124 games against the Orioles.
Cody Bellinger had three RBIs, including a two-run triple off Trivino.
AL-best New York (24-11) moved a season-high 13 games over .500, outscoring the
Orioles 39-10 in the series.
Baltimore (15-20) lost its fifth straight, dropping a season-worst five games
under .500. Adley Rutschman made the final out, dropping to 1 for 17 in the
series.
Cam Schlittler (5-1) won his third straight start, allowing one run and seven
hits in 5 2/3 innings. He forced in a run with a bases-loaded walk to Colton
Cowser in the sixth.
Schlittler threw 21 pitches 100 mph or faster --- 15 more than his total in 21
previous big league starts.
Baz gave up six runs --- five earned --- in 5 2/3 innings. Weston Wilson, an
infielder and outfielder, went to the mound to get the final out of the eighth.
Up next Orioles: RHP Chris Bassitt (2-2, 5.46 ERA) starts Tuesday at Miami, which sends RHP Sandy Alcantara (3-2, 3.04) to the mound. Yankees: RHP Elmer Rodrguez (0-1, 4.50) makes his second big league start, against Texas RHP Jacob deGrom (2-1, 2.01). ___ AP MLB: https://apnews.com/hub/mlb
