The Bronx Bombers showed incredible gameplay on Friday night against the San Diego Padres. Nick Swisher, who is the former outfielder of the Yankees, could not hold his excitement after watching the gameplay and reposted a post from MLB’s official account on Instagram with three fire emojis to appreciate the Soto, Judge and Stanton Trio.

Judge's home run went at a distance of 409 feet in the left field and had an exit velocity of (104.9) mph. Lastly, Stanton’s home run went at a distance of 417 feet and ended up in the second storey of the Western Metal Supply Co. The speed of the homer was (110.9) mph.

Gleyber Torres had also hit a home run toward the south field in the fourth inning. The captain of the Yankees, Aaron Judge, was happy with the overall performance.

“I thought we took some really great swings. We got a guy on and then Juan did his thing. He really started the fireworks. But it was a bunch of guys taking great swings.” said Judge in a post-game interview (as per MLB.com)

The Yankees have a very good batting average and are now at the top of the American League East Table.
