New York Yankees Remain Atop AL East Despite Losing Streak, Max Fried Shines on Mound

Despite a recent six-game losing streak, the New York Yankees continue to hold the top position in the American League East. Max Fried has shown exceptional performance in his first season with the team, leading the league in wins and strikeouts. While Tomoyuki Sugano has shown promise, as a 35-year-old rookie pitcher, his experience level may be a factor. Though Sugano managed to defeat the Yankees in April at Oriole Park at Camden Yards, the Baltimore Orioles have struggled on the road this season with a 14-22 record. It is expected that the Yankees' offense will improve, with Fried likely to dominate the Orioles' lineup and secure a victory for the team, putting an end to their losing streak.
