The New York Yankees snapped out of their offensive slump in a big, historic way Saturday against the Tampa Bay Rays. Here is how they began the first inning of today's game:
Aaron Judge single
Giancarlo Stanton single
Gleyber Torres single
Josh Donaldson single
Oswaldo Cabrera single
Miguel Andujar single
Isiah Kiner-Falefa single
Yes, that's seven straight singles to start the game, which is something no team has done since 1988, according to Stats Inc.
The @Yankees began today's game with seven consecutive singles, the first team to do so since the Royals on April 22, 1988 against Baltimore (also 7).
