Yankees Defeat Royals 10-2 Behind Wells Five RBI, Fried Strong Start

News summary

The New York Yankees dominated the Kansas City Royals with a 10-2 victory, marked by standout performances from Austin Wells and Aaron Judge. Wells, batting ninth, drove in a career-high five runs, including his 11th home run and a two-run double, contributing to a powerful five-run sixth inning, while Judge launched his 24th home run of the season early in the game. The Yankees amassed 16 hits with multiple players, including Trent Grisham, DJ LeMahieu, and Jasson Dominguez, contributing multi-hit performances. On the mound, Max Fried delivered a strong seven-inning outing, allowing only two runs with four strikeouts and no walks, maintaining his 1.84 ERA and solidifying his role as a key rotation piece. The bullpen, featuring Yerry De Los Santos and Tim Hill, closed out the game effectively, with Hill stranding the bases loaded in the ninth to secure the win. The victory extended the Yankees’ season dominance over the Royals, having beaten them in all four matchups this year, and set the stage for a series clinch with Clarke Schmidt pitching in the next game.
