The Yankees (86-67) have won six of their last eight games as they continue to stay within striking distance of first-place Toronto in the American League East. Fried (18-5), who held the Orioles to three singles and one walk, struck out three batters in both the third and sixth innings. Paul Goldschmidt and Austin Wells each had two hits for the Yankees, who have won three games in a row. The Yankees struck for four runs in the seventh off reliever Chayce McDermott, who retired only one of six batters he faced - and that came on Aaron Judge's sacrifice fly. New York has won four of the seven meetings between the teams so far this season.
