A pair of three-run home runs from Anthony Volpe and Juan Soto in the fourth inning helped the Yankees secure a 7-0 win against the Miami Marlins, making it the fastest nine-inning game for New York since 1992 at 2:01.
Volpe has been a standout performer for the Bronx Bombers this season with an impressive slash line of .417/.488/.667, while Soto closely follows with .357/.462/.548. Their offensive prowess was highlighted in the game against the Marlins.
Nestor Cortes delivered an outstanding performance on the mound, allowing only two hits through eight innings with six strikeouts. His pitching was complemented by Josh Maciejewski, who made a remarkable Major League debut by sealing the shutout win with three quick outs on just four pitches.
Aside from the explosive fourth inning, the Yankees managed to score an additional run via Alex Verdugo's RBI single in the fifth inning off Marlins' starter Jesus Luzardo, who faced challenges with seven runs, eight hits, and five walks over 4.2 innings, resulting in a 7.20 ERA for the season.
