At that point, the Yankees were already four home runs into a historic nine-homer barrage that resulted in a 20-9 blowout. They concluded the three-game sweep with 15 homers to tie the MLB record for the most long balls through a team's first three games.

The torpedo bats the New York Yankees are using are all the rage in the 2025 MLB season, but it turns out they're not THAT new, although you can be sure more players will be trying them now after the Yankees went on a home run barrage.

MIT physicist Aaron Leanhardt has been credited with creating the torpedo bats. Leanhardt previously served as a hitting analyst with the Yankees before he joined the Miami Marlins as a field coordinator in the offseason.
