The Yankees swept a doubleheader from the Minnesota Twins on Wednesday.
— Aaron Judge started the first-game comeback with his major league-leading 55th home run, Isiah Kiner-Falefa hit a go-ahead grand slam in the nightcap and theKiner-Falefa sparked a two-run 12th in the opener with a tying leadoff RBI single. He erased a 1-0 deficit in the fourth inning of the second game when he sent a belt-high slider from Joe Ryan into the left-field seats. IKF flipped his bat after the no-doubt drive, his first slam among 19 career home runs.
New York opened a five-game AL East lead over second-place Tampa Bay and clinched its 30th straight winning season despite an injury-depleted lineup. The Yankees are 114-39 against the Twins since 2002, including the playoffs. "You can see the energy they bring," Game 1 starter Domingo Germán said through a translator."They bring so much energy to the clubhouse."
Judge set the Yankees record for right-handed hitters by surpassing the 54 homers hit by Alex Rodriguez in 2007. The Yankees' season record of 61 was set by Roger Maris in 1961, also the AL mark and one more than Babe Ruth's high of 60 in 1927. He said the callup"completely blindsided me." Twenty-three family members and friends were on hand, visible on the third base side in a sparse crowd for the makeup of Tuesday's rainout.
