BALTIMORE -- Aaron Judge hit a tying home run, Starlin Castro's RBI single keyed a four-run ninth inning, and the New York Yankees rallied to defeat the Baltimore Orioles 7-3 Sunday and avert a three-game sweep.

New York avoided its first 1-5 start since 1989.
Ronald Torreyes cut the gap to 3-2 with a two-out, two-run triple in the sixth, Judge homered in the eighth and the Yankees completed the turnaround against Darren O'Day (0-1) in the ninth (see full recap).
