Keeping tabs on every home run for the New York Yankees this season. While the Yankees were out-homered by the Baltimore Orioles, they still managed to flip the birds further back in the AL East standings. Following a huge four-run first, Jacoby Ellsbury went deep for good measure in the second. It was all part of a 9-3 Yankee victory and series sweep.

During the second stanza with the Bombers ahead 4-1, Ellsbury crushed his third home run of the campaign, a solo shot to right, off Ubaldo Jimenez. It was part of a three-hit, four-RBI afternoon for Ellsbury, who finished a triple shy of the cycle.

On the season the Bronx Bombers have 123 home runs.
