Max Fried blanked the Orioles over seven innings and Chayce McDermott melted down in the seventh as the Yankees pulled away.

Max Fried struck out 13 over seven innings while earning his major league-leading 18th victory, and the surging New York Yankees blanked the Baltimore Orioles 7-0 Thursday night.

The New York Yankees are not particularly happy about having to travel late at night to take on the Baltimore Orioles.

Max Fried struck out 13 over seven dominant innings as the New York Yankees shut out the Baltimore Orioles, 7-0, on Thursday night, extending their win streak to three. The win pulled New York within three games of the first-place Toronto Blue Jays with nine to play.

There's nothing like watching Max Fried pitch to alleviate some of the angst and pressure associated with managing the New York Yankees in the midst of a pennant race. Aaron Boone had a blast Thursday night watching Fried mow down the Baltimore Orioles in a 7-0 rout.

According to Kuty, a "prominent member of the Yankees" called Minnesota's decision to schedule a night game "absurd," considering the team had to be in Baltimore the following day. Kuty noted that MLB allowed the Yankees to fly to Baltimore early on Thursday instead of on Wednesday night, but players instead opted for a late-night flight.

The Yankees value Rosario’s defensive versatility and his effectiveness at the plate. “He prepares really well,’’ manager Aaron Boone said. “He’s a pro. I love the energy he brings to the field. He has a veteran presence. He’s been a starter in this league and morphed into a lefty killer who bounces around [on defense].”
