A team some thought was going to fade out of playoff contention has found its power stroke and is making MLB and team history in the process.
A day after smashing nine home runs during a 13-3 drubbing of the Tampa Bay Rays, the New York Yankees crushed five more, tying an MLB record. On Wednesday night, New York tied the record for the most home runs over a two-game span.
In an ironic twist, the team the Yankees tied was the 1999 Cincinnati Reds. Yankees manager Aaron Boone was on that Reds team and hit the first of the 14 they crushed 26 years ago.
