Kyle Hendricks shines as Angels shut out Yankees for second straight game

NEW YORK — Kyle Hendricks and three relievers combined on a four-hitter as the Angels beat the slumping New York Yankees 4-0 on Tuesday night to hand them their third straight shutout.
New York manager Aaron Boone tinkered with his lineup — batting rookie Jasson Domínguez first and dropping Paul Goldschmidt to sixth — but it didn’t yield results for the Yankees, who were 0 for 10 with runners on and got just three to second base.
Aaron Judge went 0 for4 with three strikeouts and heard boos following whiffs in the sixth and eighth. He is two for 19 with 12 strikeouts in his past five games.
Nolan Schanuel hits a run-scoring double in the 11th inning to send the Angels to a 1-0 victory over the New York Yankees.
The Yankees, who haven’t scored in 29 innings since the ninth inning of a 4-3 loss at Boston on Saturday, were last blanked in three consecutive games from Sept. 22-24, 2016. They have never been shut out in four straight games.
Hendricks (5-6) conceded four hits and walked one while striking out nine — his most since he whiffed 10 for the Chicago Cubs on Sept. 18, 2020. Ryan Zeferjahn, Reid Detmers and Hunter Strickland tossed a hitless inning apiece for the Angels, who posted consecutive shutouts for the first time since Aug. 26-27, 2022.
Taylor Ward hit a two-run single in the fourth. Luis Rengifo and Nolan Schanuel each had an RBI.
Yankees starter Will Warren (4-4) gave up three runs in six innings while striking out a career-high 11. He retired the last 11 batters he faced.
Key moment: Ward’s single off the glove of third baseman Jazz Chisholm Jr. was the fourth straight one-out hit off Warren and extended the Angels’ lead to 3-0.
Key stat: The Yankees are the third team this season to get shut out in three consecutive games, following the Cincinnati Reds (April 1-3) and Colorado Rockies (April 11-13). No team has been blanked in four straight games since the Kansas City Royals in August 2017.
Up next: Yankees left-hander Ryan Yarbrough (3-1, 3.96 ERA) opposes Angels right-hander Jack Kochanowicz (3-8, 5.53) on Wednesday night.
