BALTIMORE -- Brett Gardner's productive road trip continued in the second game of Monday's doubleheader at Camden Yards, as the Yankees outfielder belted a two-run homer in the fourth inning off Orioles starter Yefry Ramirez, staking his club to a 3-0 lead.
Gardner's seventh home run of the season was a no-doubt shot to right-center field, projected to travel 426 feet by Statcast™ -- Gardner's longest blast since Statcast™ was introduced in 2015. Gardner has two homers and seven RBIs on the Yanks' current trip to Toronto and Baltimore.
The longest-tenured Yankee hit a leadoff home run in Saturday's 8-5 win over the Blue Jays, going back-to-back with Aaron Judge, and he delivered a go-ahead 10th-inning single in Sunday's 2-1 win over the Blue Jays.
