Overview
- New York sent 15 batters to the plate in a 40-minute third inning and finished with six home runs in the finale at Yankee Stadium.
- Nationals pitchers Cade Cavalli and Shinnosuke Ogasawara combined to throw 77 pitches in that frame, a total described by some outlets as a pitch-tracking-era high and by others as the second-most since at least 2000.
- Aaron Judge hit his 41st homer and went back-to-back with Cody Bellinger, while Trent Grisham, Ryan McMahon, Ben Rice and Austin Wells also went deep.
- Cavalli was charged with eight runs (seven earned) in 2 1/3 innings, and catcher Drew Millas fractured a finger on a catcher's interference play during the outburst.
- The win clinched a sweep and the Yankees' 34th straight winning home record, with a road series against the White Sox up next.
