Yankees writing history with 3 match opening homers, second time this season
The New York Yankees are writing history on the field with one home run at a time. While other teams are winning matches, the Yankees are out there winning the hearts of all baseball fans. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now It doesn't matter whether you are a Yankees fan or not, you've got to appreciate the team for opening a game with three home runs, that too twice in the same season! Talk about being the greatest of all time! The Yankees did it the first time on March 29, and now again on April 29! Is it a simple coincidence or is 29 a lucky number for the Yankees? When the New York Yankees made the Baltimore Orioles struggle on the field On April 29, the New York Yankees faced the Baltimore Orioles at the Camden Yards. While the Baltimore Orioles sent Kyle Gibson on the field to have his debut moment, the Yankees players were prepared for everything. The streak started off with Trent Grisham hitting a home run to Gibson, which was then maintained by Aaron Judge, and Ben Rice. It was just the beginning, and the Yankees already had three homers in the bag. To add more insult to injury, Cody Bellinger hit another home run, followed by Rice closing with another home run. Gibson's debut moment was definitely crushed, but baseball fans were impressed with the Yankees. After all, it's not every day you see a baseball team opening a game with three home runs. However, it might be common for the Yankees fans as the team has done it twice this season. When the Yankees faced the Milwaukee Brewers on March 29 The first time the Yankees players did this was when they faced the Milwaukee Brewers on March 29, 2025. The game started off with Nestor Cortes pitching to Paul Goldschmidt, who hit a home run in the first at-bat. The momentum was then carried by Aaron Judge and Cody Bellinger, who delivered one home run each. Aaron Judge did deliver two more home runs in the game, while Austin Wells added one homer to the list. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now Other hitters also showcased their talent on the field. There was Anthony Volpe, Jazz Chisholm Jr, and Oswald Peraza, who took turns in scoring homers.
