MINNEAPOLIS – If there was any concern that the Yankees would suffer from a hangover – figuratively or literally – after celebrating Monday’s playoff-clinching victory, they put those thoughts to rest quickly on Tuesday. Cody Bellinger and Spencer Jones homered and Max Fried pitched seven efficient and effective innings as the Yankees beat the Twins, 8-1, at Target Field. Making his ninth start since returning from two months on the IL, Fried was looking to cut down on his number of pitches per inning so he could work deeper into the game. His game plan worked to perfection, as he needed just 88 pitches (58 strikes) to get 21 outs and ended up with his longest outing since April 22, when he pitched eight innings in a win at Boston. “It definitely was nice to be able to put what felt like a full start together, not as much limited by pitch count,” Fried said. “Still got up to 88 pitches and finished the seventh, so definitely nice to kind of check that box. But it's a mix of feeling good with where we're at but also knowing that we still have stuff to work on. “I want to be able to make sure that I'm a little bit sharper coming down to the end. Got a big series coming up against Tampa \[Bay\
