The New York Yankees crushed the Kansas City Royals 15-1 at Ewing M. Kauffman Stadium on Tuesday, May 26, 2026, with a dominant offensive display.
Jazz Chisholm: Solo Shot in Victory
Chisholm went 2-for-5 with a solo home run, a walk and two total runs versus Kansas City.
Every Yankees starter had multiple hits Tuesday, so Chisholm's big performance was relatively quiet. The veteran infielder nonetheless made his fantasy managers happy with a solo shot to right-center field in the eighth inning.
Hot streak: Chisholm has been swinging a hot bat in the latter half of May, batting .405 (17-for-42) with a pair of long balls, eight runs, six RBI and two stolen bases over 11 contests since May 15.
Cody Bellinger: Homers in Second Straight Game
Bellinger went 2-for-5 with a home run and two additional RBI against the Royals.
Bellinger got the scoring started for New York with a solo blast to right field in the first inning. The Yankees rolled from there, pumping out 24 total hits and 15 total runs.
The long ball was the second in as many games for Bellinger, who had gone deep just once over his previous 20 contests. He's up to eight homers on the season along with a .277/.379/.497 slash line, 34 runs, 36 RBI and five thefts through 54 games.
Anthony Volpe: Swats First Homer of Season
Volpe went 3-for-6 with a home run, a double, three total runs and two total RBI in the victory.
Volpe was one of nine Yankees with multiple hits in an overwhelming offensive attack by New York. He clubbed a solo homer in his first plate appearance and added an RBI single his next time up.
Tuesday marked his second straight start following a two-game stint on the bench. Since making his season debut May 13, Volpe has slashed .281/.425/.469 with six runs, seven RBI and two stolen bases through 10 contests.
