New York Yankees Pounce Early To Route Chicago Cubs (Highlights)

The New York Yankees were able to ride their red-hot offense to victory on Saturday night against the defending World Champion Chicago Cubs.

The offensive surge began in the first inning when Brett Gardner led off with a double and broke the flood gates open from that point on.

Aaron Hicks, Starlin Castro, Gary Sanchez, and Chase Headley were all able to get hits to drive in runs in what would turn out to be a dominating first inning.

Cubs pitcher Brett Anderson was forced out of the game after just one out in the first inning after surrendering a staggering five earned runs.
