mer game of the season, underscoring their deep lineup and fantasy upside as the stretch run approaches.

New York’s torpedo bats lit up Rays pitching in a historic 13-3 rout, tying a franchise record with nine homers in a single game and coming just one shy of MLB’s 10-homer mark set earlier this year. Three of the nine came in the first inning as Aaron Judge, Cody Bellinger and Giancarlo Stanton all went deep off Shane Baz after a rain delay at Steinbrenner Field, with Judge notching his 40th of the season.

午後 Bellinger and Stanton added later blasts, while Jazz Chisholm Jr., Ben Rice and Jose Caballero contributed. Caballero hit his second homer in the ninth to seal the milestone. Across MLB history there have been only a handful of nine-homer games, and the Yankees now own half of those instances. They also sit atop MLB in homers with 204, ahead of the Dodgers’ 187, underscoring a power surge that has reshaped expectations despite sitting five games behind Toronto in the AL East.

Manager Aaron Boone’s involvement in those nine-homer games is a talking point, and the club’s power burst followed a weather-driven start to the day. While the Blue Jays hold the division lead, the Yankees have shown signs of turning a brutal stretch around, winning five of six. The lingering question for fantasy players: which Yankee bats—Judge, Bellinger, Stanton, Caballero, and Chisholm Jr.—are best positioned to sustain this pace the rest of the season?

This game reinforces the Yankees’ upside when the lineup is firing. It also highlights the depth behind the big three, with Caballero delivering a second homer and Chisholm Jr. contributing despite unconventional rosters. For fantasy managers, October potential already feels tangible, even as the division race tightens.
