Heading toward the AL East title, the Yankees continue to extend their winning streak to five by defeating opponents with below .500 records.

Today, the New York Yankees triumphed 10-4 over the AL Central’s bottom-ranked Chicago White Sox, powered by three home runs from Cody Bellinger, Jazz Chisholm Jr., and Trent Grisham. Recently, home runs have been a key to the Yankees’ victories, as they have smashed 33 homers in their last 10 games, tying a Major League record.

In this game, Bellinger launched a two-run homer in the first inning; Jazz Chisholm Jr. followed with a solo shot in the next inning; then Grisham contributed a two-run homer in the top of the eighth. These three homers helped the team build a significant lead. Additionally, the team’s 33 home runs over the past 10 games matched the MLB record for most homers by a single team in 10 games, previously set by the 1977 Boston Red Sox, the 2006 Atlanta Braves, and the 2019 Los Angeles Dodgers.

After this victory, the Yankees improved to 74 wins and 60 losses. They trail the division-leading Blue Jays by four games and the Red Sox by half a game in the AL East. This season, the Yankees have struggled against these two teams, holding a 4-15 record, with three more matchups remaining—making these upcoming series crucial for the final stretch. The Yankees also have the easiest remaining schedule in the AL, facing opponents with an average winning percentage of .477, giving them a chance to add more wins.

“Nothing is impossible,” Bellinger said in a postgame interview. “We have confidence in everyone here—pitchers, bullpen, lineup. We just need to keep playing our game, and good things will happen.”
