Yankees State of the Union entering May 2: How sweep it is

A 6-0 week, three sweeps in a row, a nine-game winning streak. Things are all good in Yankee land right now. Let’s recap.

Takin’ care of business

After losing two of three to the Orioles in Baltimore a few weeks ago, the New York Yankees had to sweep them at the Stadium. Any team that wants to win the AL East has to beat up on the Orioles, something the Yankees had trouble with last year. Thankfully, this series was a success.

I was at the first game on Tuesday, and the Yankee offense exploded. A three-homer game for Anthony Rizzo, Joey Gallo’s first home run of the year, and Aaron Judge went deep on his birthday.
