The New York Yankees picked up the series win over the Atlanta Braves at Truist Park with a 4-2 victory, as the team stole a win on Saturday and propelled that momentum into a win today.<\/p>\n
With Aaron Judge giving the Yankees an early lead in the first, New York never relinquished the lead behind a strong start from Marcus Stroman.<\/p>\n
Various attempts to come back from Atlanta were thwarted, and the Yankees\u2019 pitching staff had a strong performance after a rocky two games out of the All-Star Break.<\/p>\n
Marcus Stroman Delivers Another Strong Start For the Yankees<\/h2>\n
Marcus Stroman set the tone for the Yankees this afternoon, delivering a brilliant six-inning performance against a Braves lineup that tortured New York all series.<\/p>\n
Throwing seven different pitches throughout the afternoon, Stroman mixed things up and attacked the zone consistently, not issuing a free pass all day.<\/p>\n
His lone blemish was a solo home run to Matt Olson, and the veteran sinkerballer racked up four strikeouts as well.<\/p>\n
Since returning to the rotation, Stroman has posted a 3.00 ERA in four starts, helping the backend of a rotation that has struggled mightily as of late due to injuries.<\/p>\n
With Luis Gil on the way back, the Yankees could have a fortified rotation depending on how they go about handling the trade deadline.<\/p>\n
Aaron Judge Passes Alex Rodriguez on Yankees\u2019 Home Run List<\/h2>\n
Aaron Judge picked up his 36th home run of the season, giving him 351 for his career which passes Alex Rodriguez (350) on the Yankees\u2019 all-time home run list.<\/p>\n
He picked up one hit and worked a walk in five trips to the plate, and the two-time MVP is well on his way to winning his third in four seasons at this pace.<\/p>\n
This comes after Judge became the quickest hitter in MLB history to record 350 career home runs, shattering the previous record by 192 games.<\/p>\n
Giancarlo Stanton Continues to Absolutely Dominate At the Plate<\/h2>\n
Giancarlo Stanton picked up three more hits, increasing his batting average to .286 on the season as the long-time Yankee DH now has a 143 wRC+.<\/p>\n
He had a 1.090 OPS in July coming into today\u2019s game, a number that has only gone up following his three-hit performance this afternoon.<\/p>\n
If the Yankees want to get anywhere in the postseason, they\u2019ll need Stanton to remain a force in the middle of their offense.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
