Reds Sweep Yankees in Historic Series

The Cincinnati Reds completed a historic three-game sweep against the New York Yankees with an 8-4 victory. This marks the first time a National League team has swept a road series of at least three games against the Yankees since interleague play began in 1997. Key performances included homers from Nick Martini, Jonathan India, and Spencer Steer, and a bases-clearing triple from Jake Fraley. Former Yankees pitcher Frankie Montas played a crucial role, allowing only two runs over five-plus innings. This sweep extends the Yankees' struggles, as they have now lost 13 of their last 17 games and have been unable to win a series in three weeks. The Yankees' offense showed some life with home runs from rookies Austin Wells and Ben Rice, but it was not enough to overcome their pitching woes.
