BOSTON — Even Aaron Judge, who is putting up historic numbers with the Yankees once again this season, isn’t immune to a sudden slump. The superstar slugger was 1-for-12 with nine strikeouts against the Red Sox over the weekend, a big reason why the Yankees were held down on offense and swept for the first time all year.

As a result, the Yankees took a 2-0 loss to the Red Sox Sunday afternoon at Fenway Park to complete a three-game sweep at the hands of their rivals. It is the first time they have been swept in a series this season.

The week began with Boston calling up top prospect Roman Anthony. It ended with the Red Sox trading slugger Rafael Devers. In between, they swept the rival Yankees.
