No Aaron Judge? No problem! New Yankees member helps avoid sweep on Sunday

Okay, so Aaron Judge is probably not going to need a replacement in the lineup for the New York Yankees anytime soon. But the star outfielder is out with an elbow injury, and the club is still battling for a postseason spot.

Enter, Ryan McMahon, who played in his second game as a member of the Bronx Bombers. Traded from Colorado on Friday, McMahon has two hits and scored a run, with a double, while driving in two to help the Yankees to a 4-3 win over the Philadelphia Phillies.

The win for the Yankees avoided a three-game sweep. McMahon hit seventh in the New York lineup, and he now has three hits in the first two games with the club.

New York is now 57-48, and still remains in control of one of three American League wildcard spots. New York will remain at home and take on the Tampa Bay Rays on Monday.
