Judge drives in 3, helps Yanks top Twins 12-6 to avoid sweep
Aaron Judge had three hits and three RBIs and dodged an injury scare on his eventful 31st birthday, helping the New York Yankees avoid a sweep and beat the Minnesota Twins 12-6. Gleyber Torres hit a two-run homer and Anthony Volpe and Anthony Rizzo each had two run-doubles in a six-run fourth inning against Twins starter Kenta Maeda. The Yankees posted season highs in hits and runs. They totaled eight runs over their previous five games. Maeda allowed a career-worst 11 hits and 10 runs. He had muscle discomfort in his arm.
