NEW YORK—Rookie Luis Gil battled command issues in cool conditions but pitched five scoreless innings of two-hit ball, Aaron Judge reached base four times and hit an RBI single, and the surging New York Yankees beat the Los Angeles Angels 5–2 in the first game of a doubleheader on Wednesday.
Pitching in short sleeves in 65-degree weather after having worked in 86-degree heat last week in Philadelphia, Gil (12–5) allowed only singles to Anthony Rendon and Jo Adell in the second inning while earning his third straight win.
