As of writing this, the Yankees are currently tied for first place in the AL East after a much-needed blowout and series sweep of the Cleveland Guardians. Prior to this game, however, the Yankees offense left a lot to be desired, as only one of their previous nine victories was decided by more than three runs. To say Sunday’s result was a much-needed blowout might be an understatement.
Naturally, for a season that has begun in such a bizarre way for the Yankees — yes, they’re tied for first and the pitching has been excellent, but the offense has looked very rough at times — there are bound to be some weird statistics to go along with them.
