Maybin lifts Angels as Yankees lose 7th in row

Cameron Maybin hit a tiebreaking home run off struggling reliever Tyler Clippard to spark a three-run seventh inning, and the Los Angeles Angels beat New York 8-3 Tuesday night to extend the Yankees’ losing streak to seven games — their longest in a single season since April 2007.

Aaron Judge hit his major league-leading 24th home run and Gary Sanchez his 12th as New York climbed back from a 3-0 deficit.

But then Cameron drove the second pitch from Clippard (1-4) into the left-field seats, Kole Calhoun doubled to the right-center gap, Albert Pujols flied out to the center-field warning track and Yunel Escobar hit an RBI triple just over the glove of a leaping Brett Gardner at the left-field wall.

Clippard walked off to boos after allowing runs for the third time in four outings. Jonathan Holder relieved, and Luis Valbuena singled through a drawn-in infield to drive in another run.

Los Angeles, which outhit New York 14-4, had lost its nine previous games at Yankee Stadium and 18 of 21. In one of the season’s quirkier stats, the Angels improved to 12-0 on Tuesdays. Maybin had three hits and two RBIs, including a run-scoring chopper in the eighth. Valbuena added a solo homer off Holder in the ninth.

Blake Parker (3-2) allowed Sanchez’s tying home run in the sixth.

Yadier Molina and Tommy Pham both homered in a seven-run 11th inning to help the St. Louis Cardinals beat the Philadelphia Phillies. Bryce Harper started the scoring with a two-run single that extended his hitting streak to 13 games, and Gio Gonzalez pitched seven innings to help the Washington Nationals beat the Miami Marlins.
