Yankees launching a historic home run barrage

NEW YORK -- Records, as the old saying goes, were made to be broken.

And right now, the New York Yankees stand a very good chance to completely shatter one of baseball's more respected team offensive marks.

"Everybody here can hit," third baseman Miguel Andujar said.

Based on the way the Yankees have collectively been smashing baseballs into bleachers and bullpens at the ballparks they've played in this season, it would appear Andujar isn't exaggerating all that much.

If the homer-happy Yanks keep up their current long ball-hitting pace, they will set a new single-season home run record for a team, besting the old major league mark that was set 21 years ago by the same club visiting them this week in the Bronx.
