Aaron Judge hit a tiebreaking homer leading off the seventh inning that ended a 10-game drought, and the New York Yankees defeated the Kansas City Royals 4-3 to complete a three-game sweep.

In the seventh inning of a tie game, Judge saw a sinker from John Schreiber that cut across the plate and demolished it into the bullpen in right-center for his seventh homer of the season. Mid-April is too soon for pace calculators, but if extrapolated he would be on track for 63.

If there was a microcosm of the Kansas City Royals’ season so far, look no further than the sixth inning against the New York Yankees on Tuesday night. The Royals were in the driver’s seat. Royals starter Michael Wacha was rolling along with a two-run lead. He navigated the Yankees’ lineup twice without allowing a run through five innings.
