As I write this, the New York Yankees are probably on a charter flight somewhere between Toronto and New York, basking in the glory of a 13-inning marathon victory. The road trip was an obvious success as they went 5-1, albeit against 3 teams who are all below .500 to varying degrees.
These games broke from the recent trend, where the pitching staff lives on the edge and limits damage while the offense bashes roughly 2 homeruns per game. This trip felt more like those games back in late April/early May when the staff was among the best in baseball, throwing up zeroes every inning while Aaron Judge, Gleyber Torres, and company wore down opposing pitchers until they eventually caved.
