The Yankees salvaged what they could out of their weekend home series against the Dodgers, winning 6-4 on Sunday and managing to avoid a series sweep. But the 1-2 result was the first losing series for the Yankees since their four-game clash with Baltimore ending May 2, which they dropped 1-3.

The Yankees looked like a different team without Juan Soto during the series. The star slugger sat out over the weekend due to left forearm inflammation, and New York struggled to generate offense as a result. But Trent Grisham — Soto’s replacement on the lineup — overcame a skeptical home crowd with an absolute laser of a home run in the sixth inning, driving home three runs and giving New York the lead.

Now the Yankees, still firmly in command of the American League and 2.5 games out front of the Orioles in the AL East, will travel to Kansas City with Soto still listed as day-to-day. The Royals are 39-27 and second in the AL Central. They’re coming off a 6-5 loss to the Mariners.
