Pablo Reyes stumbled, stopped and still scrambled home safely on a wild play in the eighth inning, taking advantage of a throwing error by reliever Lucas Erceg to give the New York Yankees a 1-0 victory over the Kansas City Royals.

As a result, the Yankees took a 2-0 loss to the Red Sox Sunday afternoon at Fenway Park to complete a three-game sweep at the hands of their rivals. It is the first time they have been swept in a series this season.
