Yankees Make MLB History: 9 Home Runs in a Game — Twice in One Season

The New York Yankees are rewriting the MLB record books in 2025. On Tuesday night, the Bronx Bombers smashed nine home runs against the Tampa Bay Rays, marking the second time this season they’ve reached that historic milestone. No other team in Major League Baseball history has ever done it.

José Caballero’s Big Revenge Game vs. Former Team

José Caballero entered the night with just two home runs across 86 games this season with the Rays. But in his very first game against his old club at George M. Steinbrenner Field, he matched that total—crushing two home runs for his first-ever multi-homer performance.

“I think it’s from hanging around with these guys,” Caballero said with a smile after the Yankees’ 13-3 victory.

Judge Reaches 40, Stanton and Bellinger Go Deep Twice

Caballero wasn’t the only Yankee putting on a show.

Aaron Judge crushed his 40th home run of the season, adding yet another milestone to his MVP-caliber year.
Giancarlo Stanton and Cody Bellinger both blasted two home runs each, proving the heart of the Yankees’ order is as dangerous as ever.

By the end of the rain-delayed slugfest, New York had tied its own franchise record with nine home runs in a single game.

Yankees’ Historic Power Surge in 2025

This wasn’t the first time New York flexed its muscle this year. Back on March 29, the Yankees hit nine home runs in a 20-9 blowout of the Milwaukee Brewers at Yankee Stadium.

That makes the 2025 Yankees the first team in MLB history to hit nine homers in a game twice in the same season.

Cody Bellinger put it best:

“We have a really good offense. You’re going to have ebbs and flows of a 162-game season. It’s not always going to be pretty, but we all believe in each other and the talent is there. We’re doing a good job of putting it all together. It’s really fun to be a part of.”

Summary: Yankees Keep Making History

Yankees hit 9 home runs vs. Rays, tying their single-game record.
José Caballero smashed 2 HRs in his first game vs. his former team.

What This Means for the Yankees’ Season
