The Yankees broke out the bats in a major way, dropping 10 runs on Seattle to open up this final homestand before the All-Star break. Several Yanks went yard, including the captain Aaron Judge launching his 34th blast of the year. A two-game win streak isn’t much, but it’s a great trajectory after everything they’ve been through the last few weeks.
Before the Yankees get back into action, let’s rundown what we’ve got in store here. Peter starts us off with the At-Bat of the Week featuring Aaron Judge’s sac fly in the Mets series finale, and Sam follows with the Rivalry Roundup and the Jays keeping the Yankees from gaining any ground. Jake covers the latest 2000 Diary entry, and Michael dives into Cam Schlittler’s pro history ahead of his MLB debut tonight.
