NEW YORK—Aaron Judge hit his major league-leading 53rd homer, and the New York Yankees beat the Boston Red Sox 5–2 on Sunday to open a three-game AL East lead over second-place Baltimore.
Judge, whose 132 RBIs also top the major leagues, homered twice in three games followed a career-high 16-game homerless streak and helped Carlos Rodón get his career-best 15th win.
