SPORTS DIGEST

BASEBALL

Aaron Judge hit his 100th home run of his MLB career as the New York Yankees shut out the Seattle Mariners 7-0. The 27-year-old became the third-fastest to triple figures when he found the fence for a two-run homer in the first. Brett Gardner added a three-run homer in the third as New York opened up a one game lead at the top of the Atlantic League East over the Tampa Bay Rays.

The Rays went down heavily to the Hoston Astros in their third loss in a row. Houston scored multiple runs in each of the third to sixth innings, while Joey Wendle’s homer in the seventh was just a consolation for the Rays who lost 15-1.
