DJ LeMahieu homered twice for the first time in two years, Gerrit Cole won on the road for the first time in two months and the sliding New York Yankees beat the AL wild card-leading Tampa Bay Rays 6-2 on Friday night.
Last-place New York , in danger of ending its streak of 30 consecutive winning seasons, won for just second time in 12 games.
Cole had been 0-2 in six road starts since beating the Los Angeles Dodgers on June 3. He matched his season high of 11 strikeouts, allowing two runs — one earned — and three hits in 7 2/3 innings. His AL-leading ERA dropped from 3.03 to 2.95. “It doesn't always work out where you see the results right away, the results were definitely there,” Cole said. “It was a good adjustment.”
Eflin failed in his bid to become the AL's first 14-game winner. He gave up two runs and seven hits, striking out a season-best 11 over six innings. He threw a season-high 103 pitches.
