For the first time in history, the Yankees started the season twice in a single season, hitting three times in a row, and the Golden Orioles hit a record 15-3

As Yogi Berra might have said – this déjà vu scene plays out again. The Yankees became the first team in the history of the American League and the National League to win multiple single-season gamesThree home runs in a rowThe team that started the tournament regained its feat after a full month. Trent Grisham, Aaron Judge and Ben Rice blasted back-to-back at Camden Square Tuesday night to set the tone for the 15-3 Orioles.

"It all started with Grisha, who lit the fuse for us," Judge said, "and when Grisha did that, the pressure on everyone's shoulders was lifted." Cody Bellinger then added a home run in the inning, giving the Yankees four hits in a single inning for the second time in franchise history (the first was against the Brewers on March 29, when Paul Goldschmidt, Bellinger, Judge and Austin Wells hit Nestor Cortes).

"I've never seen anything like it," said head coach Aaron Boone, "it's incomprehensible." "

Tuesday's four first-inning home runs were all run by Kyle Gibson, the 37-year-old right-hand shooter who missed nine runs in 3.2 innings. Boone noted that the Yankees "have some familiarity with the pitcher, who signed with the Orioles in late March."

"The batting strategy throughout the first game was impressive," Judge added, "and seeing Bellinger make up for the key shot was a sign that the line was in full swing. This team never lets up. "

The firepower show almost overshadowed Carlos Rodón's brilliant performance, with the left-hand thrower's first 15 hits all settled and the first hitter not guaranteed until six innings. Jorge Mateo's right field second base hit a disrupting no-hitter. "It's so easy to pitch with a huge lead," said Rodon (6.1 innings, 2 hits, 1 hit, 7 strikeouts), "and we can get out of the innings quickly and keep the line scoring." "

Grisham blasted Gibson's second goal into Eutaw Street to temporarily level Judge with his eighth hit of the season (and his seventh career opener). But the Yankees then regained the lead with a home run from the right field wall (ninth of the season). "You can't let him take the lead," laughed Judge, who continued to hit 10 Streaks, "and it's funny." "

Rice then blasted the first of a single double, at which point Gibson hit three shots after just five shots. When asked if he thought about continuing his home run when he came on the court, the sophomore admitted: "Of course the thought flashed, but you have to stick to your batting strategy." "

Grisham's home run was the 133rd to hit Uto Street since Camden Square opened in 1992, with the 69th of the visiting team. The 12th time a Yankee player has achieved this feat, the last time was on April 30 last year when Juan Soto did it. "It's cool to be part of a legend," Grisham said, "but it's the outbursts of teammates that follow-up that are key. "

Rice scored 3 and 4 points and 2 points in a single game, Bellinger contributed 3 points, and Wells added Yang Chun Cannon in the ninth inning. The Yankees started the line with a full hit, and the season-high 19 Ans completely destroyed the opponent. "It's a show of the depth of the line," Rice points out, "and there's a lethal threat from the first to the ninth. "
