It wasn’t without warts, but the pluses outweighed the minuses for the Yankees on Sunday against the woeful Rangers at Yankee Stadium.
At this stage of the season and playing without Aaron Judge and Gary Sanchez, the Yankees will take it going into Monday night’s game against the putrid Mets in The Bronx.
CC Sabathia’s second consecutive strong outing, combined with homers by Giancarlo Stanton and Didi Gregorius, who also contributed several outstanding plays at short, carried the Yankees to a 7-2 victory that was witnessed by 41,304.
