Yankees Highlights: Cameron Maybin homers in fourth straight game

Maybin is red hot!

MLB: Tampa Bay Rays at New York Yankees Noah K. Murray-USA TODAY Sports

The weather sure hasn’t cooperated this week, and it looks bad tomorrow too. The Yankees were able to get in tonight’s game though, after a very delayed start. After a win tonight, they’re up 2-0 in this series against the rival Rays! Check out the highlights:

Winner(s) of the Game

Holy cow, Cameron Maybin! The Bombers are running out of room on the roster for him, but he is really trying to force their hand. The outfielder has now homered in four consecutive games. He also picked up two singles. They can’t DFA him at this point, right? They are going to have to think long and hard about going with one less reliever. Meanwhile, the Yankees have now hit a home run in 21 consecutive games, and are approaching a franchise record of 25.

Speaking of home runs, Edwin Encarnacion finally got his first hit in pinstripes, and it was a home run to right field.

Honorable Mention: DJ LeMahieu, Gary Sanchez, Luke Voit

Loser of the Game

Again, no one!
