Overview

  • The two-out, three-run drive in the first inning staked New York to an early lead over Baltimore.
  • The total moves him past Jeff Bagwell and Vladimir Guerrero Sr. on the all-time home run list.
  • He sits at 21 homers this season, giving him five straight 20-plus homer campaigns since 2021.
  • The article frames this season as a rebound from a negative-WAR year, highlighting his best per-rate offense as a Yankee.
  • With two guaranteed seasons before a 2028 club option, he has time to chase 500 as the Yankees hold a two-game edge for the top AL Wild Card spot.
