NextImg:Yankees’ offense breaks through as New York takes series over A’s

OAKLAND, Calif. — In the aftermath of Domingo German achieving perfection, the Yankees’ offense finally got its day in the sun.

With their 11-run outburst on Wednesday night overshadowed by German’s perfect game, the Yankees came back on Thursday afternoon and hung another crooked number on the worst team in baseball, beating the Athletics 10-4 to claim the series at Oakland Coliseum.

For the second straight game, the Yankees batted around in an inning, using an eight-run top of the sixth on Thursday to take control of the game.

It followed a six-run inning on Wednesday night that provided German plenty of breathing room on his way to making history.

Eight of nine Yankees in the starting lineup recorded at least one hit, led by Harrison Bader (3-for-4, double, walk) and two-hit games for Gleyber Torres, Isiah Kiner-Falefa and Anthony Volpe.

In total, they pounded out 13 hits.

The Yankees (45-36) also got home runs from Kiner-Falefa and Josh Donaldson, who slugged his eighth home run of the season, but the first that came in a win.

It was some welcomed run support for Clarke Schmidt, who had pitched well of late but had nothing to show for it.

Across his last six starts entering Thursday, Schmidt had posted a 1.97 ERA, and yet the Yankees were 0-6 in those games because the offense had scored just five runs while he was still pitching.
