In a historic game against the Brewers, the Yankees demonstrated the power of their offense by hitting nine home runs, a feat that tied them with only two other MLB teams. In a 20-9 victory, they displayed resilience amid a decimated pitching staff due to injuries. Among the highlights were Paul Goldschmidt, Cody Bellinger, and Aaron Judge hitting back-to-back-to-back homers, and Judge's additional two homers earned him a curtain call, marking a strong start to his MVP campaign. This performance set the tone for the Yankees' season.
