The Yankees might have only scored three runs last night in Baltimore, but thanks to a workmanlike outing from Gerrit Cole and more dominance from Clay Holmes, it was enough for a 3-2 victory — their ninth in ten games and fourth in a row. They’ve now won nine consecutive series and sit at a frankly absurd 28-9. Keep it up!

The Rays took advantage of an injured and ineffective Eduardo Rodriguez to turn this afternoon getaway day matchup into about as much of a no-contest as a 6-1 win can be.
