Yankees avoid being swept with 2-1 win over Guardians

Ryan McMahon hit a go-ahead single in the seventh inning, Carlos Rodón combined with three relievers on a two-hitter and the New York Yankees beat the Cleveland Guardians 2-1 Thursday to salvage the finale of a three-game series that star Aaron Judge missed. New York manager Aaron Boone said before the game that the team was awaiting an update on Judge, who has a bruised rib on his right side that is causing shoulder pain. After the game, Boone said they were still awaiting an update from a specialist in Texas.
