The New York Yankees have avoided a sweep in the Subway Series finale, ending a six-game losing streak that cost them the top spot in the American League East.

Overall, the Yankees and Mets split their six head-to-head games this season, with the Yankees taking two of three during their series in the Bronx in May.

Ace Max Fried started for the Yankees, throwing five-plus innings of three-run ball with six hits, five strikeouts and one walk. He came back out for the sixth with the Yankees leading 5-2 and plunked Brandon Nimmo on the first pitch he threw. That turned out to be the last pitch of his outing.

Cody Bellinger started a pivotal double play and the Yankees stopped a six-game losing streak by beating the Mets 6-4 to avoid a weekend Subway Series sweep.

Never mind that that it came against a Mets team that’s used duct tape and twine to hold together a pitching staff to get 27 outs every game. A win is a win is a win and the 6-4 triumph before 41,117 at Citi Field was the Yankees’ first in a week.

The power of Aaron Judge was on full display at Citi Field when he smashed his 33rd home run of the season, a blast that cleared the fence and gave the New York Yankees a crucial 5-0 lead in the fifth inning.

NEW YORK — As expected, Aaron Judge won’t be alone representing the Yankees at the All-Star Game later this month in Atlanta. Ace Max Fried and infielder Jazz Chisholm Jr. were also selected to the American League roster, MLB announced on Sunday evening.
