The New York Yankees are heading into the All-Star break feeling good — sweeping the Washington Nationals three straight at Nationals Park to finish their road trip 5 and 2.
All three wins were come-from-behind victories — the Yankees trailed after seven innings in every single game. Friday, Jazz Chisholm Junior delivered a two-run homer in the ninth for a 5-3 win. Saturday, Trent Grisham went deep in the eighth for a 4-2 win — also giving manager Aaron Boone his 750th career managerial win. And Sunday, Ben Rice came through with a two-run triple in the eighth to seal another 5-3 victory.
New York heads into the break at 54-47 — 3 games behind Tampa Bay in the A-L East.
The Yankees return from the break Friday against the Los Angeles Dodgers at Yankee Stadium.
