The Yankees look to sweep their four-game series at the Angels Thursday night at 9:07 p.m.

Yankees notes

The Yankees erased a five-run deficit Wednesday night to earn their sixth straight win, an impressive run considering the number of injuries they've been dealing with. That number grew Wednesday as Clint Frazier hurt his ankle and landed on the injured list. ... DJ LeMahieu had a badly needed big night at the plate, going 2-for-4 with three RBI, driving in the go-ahead run in the ninth with a single. LeMahieu was just 3-for-37 over his last nine appearances.
