Yankees Are Off to Third Best Start in Franchise History

BALTIMORE — Luis Severino allowed one hit in six innings, and Jose Trevino became the first Yankees catcher with a home run this year when he hit a three-run drive in the fourth to lift the surging Yankees over the Baltimore Orioles, 6-2, Monday night.

Josh Donaldson and Anthony Rizzo added back-to-back solo homers in the ninth for the Yankees, who won for the 19th time in 22 games. New York (26-9) is off to one of the best 35-game starts in franchise history. Only the 1939 and 1928 teams, at 28-7, were better at this point.

Kyle Bradish (1-2) allowed four runs and eight hits in four and a third innings in his fourth career start.
