At one point the Yankees were down 7-1 to Oakland. Then they busted out the bats. They became the first team in history to hit 3 grand slams in a game. Robinson Cano, Russell Martin, and Curtis Granderson all connected. The Yankees beat up the Oakland bullpen to the tune of 16 runs in 3.2 innings. They routed the Athletics 22-9.
Russell Martin had 6 RBIs. Granderson had 5 to push him over 100. He's got 103 and could be the favorite for the AL MVP at this point.
Also, as a note since there were whispers that Derek Jeter was about washed up around May or June when he was hitting under .270. Jeter was 3-6 with an RBI and has his batting average at .299. Ever since he came off the DL a few games before reaching the 3000 hit landmark he's been on a tear.
