On a day when the Yankees were slated to play (at least) 18 innings, the Yankees got it started with a slog of the first nine.

But the Yankees made it work in the first game of a doubleheader, thanks to a hot-hitting top of their lineup that led the way to a 5-2 win over the Angels on Wednesday in The Bronx. On a day that felt more like April than August, Alex Verdugo, Aaron Judge and Austin Wells each chipped in two hits and an RBI as the Yankees won for the eighth time in their past nine games.
Verdugo led off the bottom of the first with a double off right-hander Davis Daniel, and one out later Judge drew a full-count walk. Though the walk was not intentional, Wells made Daniel pay for it when he went the other way for a single that put the Yankees up 1-0. Oswaldo Cabrera, getting just his seventh start of the season at second base to spell Gleyber Torres in the first game of the twinbill, added to the lead in the second by crushing a solo home run to right field.
