The New York Yankees crushed a franchise record-tying nine home runs in a dominant 13-3 win over the Tampa Bay Rays on Tuesday.

Giancarlo Stanton and Cody Bellinger both hit two home runs, Aaron Judge launched his 40th shot of the season and the New York Yankees matched a franchise record with nine long balls Tuesday night in a convincing 13-3 victory over the Tampa Bay Rays.

Carlos Rodón is on the mound as he looks to build on an impressive start against the Twins last week, where he was the first Yankee to complete seven innings in a game since he did it himself against the Cubs on July 11th.

BOTTOM LINE: The New York Yankees take on the Tampa Bay Rays after Cody Bellinger had four hits against the Rays on Tuesday. Tampa Bay has a 32-31 record in home games and a 61-65 record overall. The Rays are 10th in the AL with 137 total home runs, averaging 1.1 per game.

According to Bryan Hoch of MLB .com, that makes the Yankees the first team in Major League Baseball history with multiple nine-homer games, period. The fact that they did so twice in the same season is the type of baseball oddity that makes the game so fun to watch.

The New York Yankees made MLB history in their 13-3 thrashing of the Tampa Bay Rays as they clubbed nine home runs in their victory on Tuesday.
