Yankees set new home record for June as they sweep A’s, 5-3

NEW YORK — Aaron Judge and Giancarlo Stanton each homered as the Yankees set a new major league record for home runs in the month of June — with a game to go. The Yankees scored all their runs on those two shots as they completed the three-game sweep of the A’s 5-3 Wednesday afternoon at Yankee Stadium.

With the sweep of the A’s (25-52) in three games here this week, the Yankees (56-20) have swept nine series. It was the first time they have swept a series against Oakland since a four-game sweep in Oakland May 19-22, 2016. The last time the Yankees swept the A’s in the Bronx was back in 2010.

Last year, the Yankees swept 12 series all season.
