The New York Yankees<\/strong> arrive fired up for a crucial four-game series against the Boston Red Sox<\/strong>. The New York team has demonstrated its offensive power, with an impressive streak of home runs.<\/p>\n Giancarlo Stanton<\/strong> hit a two-run homer in the top of the tenth inning, and Austin Wells<\/strong> followed with his second home run of the night, securing the Yankees’ victory over the Rays with a score of 6-4 at Steinbrenner Field in Tampa, Florida, on Wednesday night.<\/p>\n The Yankees finished the game with five home runs, totaling 14 in the series, tying a major league record for most home runs in a two-game series. The previous record was held by the 1999 Reds.<\/p>\n Trent Grisham<\/strong> hit his fifth home run as the leadoff hitter of the season, and then added his second of the night in the eighth inning.<\/p>\n This performance marked the first time in Yankees history that multiple players hit multiple home runs in consecutive games. Stanton, Cody Bellinger<\/strong>, and Jose Caballero<\/strong> also contributed two home runs each in the 13-3 victory over the Rays the night before.<\/p>\n In total, the Yankees have scored 19 runs in the last two games, all thanks to home runs. This is the most consecutive runs scored via home runs since 2020.<\/p>\n The Wednesday show of force came after a standout performance by rookie Cam Schlittler<\/strong>.<\/p>\n In his seventh start in the Major Leagues, Schlittler held the Rays scoreless and allowed only one hit in 6 2\/3 innings, the most in his career. His bid for a perfect game ended when Chandler Simpson<\/strong> singled to lead off the seventh inning. Schlittler struck out eight batters.<\/p>\n The Yankees improved their record to 69-57 after their first extra-inning win in seven tries this season.<\/p>\n The team is 4.5 games behind the Toronto Blue Jays<\/strong>, leaders of the American League East, and 1.5 games behind the Red Sox, who will visit Yankee Stadium on Thursday night for the start of a four-game series.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" The Yankees Demonstrate Power with a Home Run Explosion The New York Yankees arrive fired up for a crucial four-game series against the Boston Red Sox.
