Yankees defeat Orioles 15-3, hit three straight homers

The New York Yankees dominated the Baltimore Orioles with a 15-3 victory, highlighted by hitting four home runs in the first inning and six total for the game. Trent Grisham, Aaron Judge, and Ben Rice opened the game with back-to-back-to-back homers, with Cody Bellinger adding another in the same inning. Ben Rice homered again in the second, and Austin Wells capped the barrage in the ninth. This marked the second time this season the Yankees have started a game with three consecutive home runs, making them the first team in MLB history to do so twice in one season. Yankees starter Carlos Rodón took a perfect game into the sixth, ultimately allowing just two runs and two hits over six-plus innings, while Orioles pitcher Kyle Gibson was shelled for nine runs in his season debut. The Orioles, who have the worst ERA in baseball, have now lost seven of their last nine games.
