? Yankees Stat of the Day, July 2021

Aug. 31: Angels 6, Yankees 4 -- 'Kraken' unleashed
Gary S¨¢nchez's fifth-inning home run was his first since July 20, snapping a career-long 20-game homerless drought. Entering the night, Sanchez was hitting just .188 (6-for-32) with one extra-base hit in nine games since coming off the COVID-19 IL on Aug. 17.

Aug. 30: Angels 8, Yankees 7 -- Slugging in SoCal
Giancarlo Stanton¡¯s 457-foot home run was the longest homer hit by a visiting player at Angel Stadium this season. With an exit velocity of 115.2 mph, it was just the third homer ever hit at the Big A that traveled at least 450 feet at 115.0 mph or greater. The others belong to Shohei Ohtani and Joey Gallo.

Aug. 29: A¡¯s 3, Yankees 1 -- Wade keeps hot streak going

Aug. 28: A's 3, Yankees 2 -- All Rise still streaking
Aaron Judge is hitting .384 (28-for-73) with seven homers and 21 RBIs during his 20-game on-base streak. Judge¡¯s 29 home runs trail only Joey Gallo (30) among Major League outfielders.

Aug. 27: Yankees 8, A's 2 -- A championship-caliber run
The Yankees have won 35 of their past 46 games, a stretch dating back to July 4. They are the sixth Yanks team in the Expansion Era (since 1961) to win 35 of 46. The other times it happened were 1961, '77, '78, '98 and 2009 -- all years that the Yankees won the World Series championship.

Aug. 26: Yankees 7, A's 6 -- Streaking like 1961
The Yankees extended their win streak to a season-high 12 games with a win in the series opener vs. the Athletics. It is the 11th time in franchise history that the Yanks have won a dozen consecutive games, and their first since a 13-game winning streak from Sept. 1-12, 1961.

Aug. 24: Yankees 5, Braves 4 -- Yet another Yankees streak
In keeping their winning streak alive Tuesday night, the Yankees made more history by claiming their 10th straight series victory with the two-game sweep in Atlanta. That's their longest streak since they also won 10 series in a row from June 22-July 22 all the way back in 1954.

Aug. 23: Yankees 5, Braves 1 -- Stanton sets record in Atlanta
Giancarlo Stanton is no stranger to hard-hit balls. Aided by his 6-foot-6, 245-pound frame, he basically owns Statcast metrics like exit velocity. But he took it to another level Monday night, with his 119.2 mph go-ahead two-run double to left field. Not only did it win the game for the Yanks, but it was the hardest-hit ball in Truist Park history.

Bronx native Andrew Velazquez hit his first big league home run on Saturday. He became the sixth New York-born Yankee to homer for the club since 1993 and the second this season, joining Tim Locastro, Alex Rodriguez, Raul Iba?ez, John Flaherty and Clay Bellinger.

Aug. 20: Yankees 10, Twins 2 -- Some things never change

Aug. 18: Yankees 5, Red Sox 2 -- Saving grace
Yankees pitchers have recorded a save in six consecutive games, tying the longest streak in franchise history (two by Chad Green, one each by Albert Abreu, Wandy Peralta, Jonathan Loaisiga and Lucas Luetge). They also recorded a save in six consecutive games from June 29-July 4, 1991 (four by Steve Farr, two by Lee Guetterman).

According to the Elias Sports Bureau, it marks the second time in franchise history that the Yanks won four consecutive games, each with a different pitcher earning a save. Zack Britton, Luis Cessa, Dellin Betances and David Robertson earned saves in four consecutive games from Aug. 24-26, 2018.
