Yankees Tie 10-Game HR Record, Mets Stumble, Giants Sweep Cubs on Lee Walk-Off

New York's power binge has come largely against losing teams.

Overview

  • The Yankees beat the White Sox 10-4 for a fifth straight win, with Cody Bellinger, Jazz Chisholm Jr. and Trent Grisham homering in Chicago.
  • They matched the MLB mark with 33 home runs in a 10-game span as the bullpen logged four scoreless innings to close out the victory.
  • Anthony Volpe’s error set up Miguel Vargas’ first career grand slam, though Volpe recorded his first multihit game since Aug. 1 and Chicago said Vargas exited with a left wrist contusion.
  • The MetsNL East push took a hit in a 7-4 loss to the Marlins, undone by three errors, a passed ball and outfield bobbles that turned a 4-4 game in the seventh.
  • San Francisco completed a three-game sweep of the Cubs on Jung Hoo Lee’s ninth-inning single, handing Chicago its first sweep loss of at least three games this season.
