The New York Yankees love the home run ball. They’re called the Bronx Bombers for a reason.
And they might have the answer to hitting even more: redesigned bats.
The Milwaukee Brewers are getting an up close look at the home run-heavy Yankees and their powerful bats in the first series of the season. Aaron Boone’s team set a franchise-record nine home runs against the Brewers en route to a 20-9 shellacking on Saturday.
The Yankees have now smashed 11 home runs in their first two game over the Brewers, both victories.
