No snoozing: Yankees pull all-nighter, beat Reds 10-4

CINCINNATI — The Yankees know how to pull an all-nighter and come up aces.

Brett Gardner and Matt Holliday homered, Masahiro Tanaka won his fifth consecutive start and New York shook off a long game and a short night's sleep, beating the Cincinnati Reds 10-4 on Monday night for its sixth victory in a row.

The Yankees have the best record in the majors at 21-9 and are 12 games over .500 for the first time since the end of the 2015 season.

Better yet, they were awake to enjoy all of it.

"Guys were really fatigued," manager Joe Girardi said.
