Playing the lowly Royals, the Yankees put together a much-needed three-game stretch of productivity this weekend.
New York topped Kansas City 5–4, 5–2 and 8–5 for a three-game sweep, punctuating the trio of victories with first baseman Anthony Rizzo's Taylor Swift-fueled 4-for-4 game Sunday. The team, however, was finished neither with music nor staying busy.
On Sunday's It's All a Blur Tour stop at Madison Square Garden, Drake took the stage accompanied by Yankee royalty in the form of outfielders Giancarlo Stanton and Aaron Judge. Concertgoers filmed Drake slowly descending toward the Garden stage to cheers, Stanton and Judge in tow.

Stanton made his appearance mere hours after going 2-for-4 with a run for New York against the Royals. Judge, on the other hand, hasn't played since June 3 due to a right toe injury.
It's Judge's second Drake concert of this calendar year, as the American League single-season home run record-holder was present for the rapper's January show at the Apollo Theater in Harlem.
