Judge hits 28th home run, Stanton hurts hamstring as Yankees beat Braves

NEW YORK — Aaron Judge hit his major league-leading 28th home run and the New York Yankees stopped a three-game losing streak with an 8-3 win over the Atlanta Braves on Saturday night as Giancarlo Stanton hurt his left hamstring.

Judge had three RBIs for a major league-high 70, Juan Soto reached base four times on a single and three walks, and Marcus Stroman won for the fifth time in six decisions. The big league-best Yankees (52-27) had lost five of their previous six games, during which they were outscored 51-23.

"It's just one game, but that's what we've got to do," Judge said.
