So far, nobody has been able to stop the New York Yankees, who are on an absolute rampage as they continue to run through each and every one of their opponents.
With their 7-6 come-from-behind victory, the Yankees became the first team in baseball to reach the 30-win mark as they walked off the Baltimore Orioles in the bottom of the 11th inning on Jose Trevino‘s base hit.
A Yankees fan page on Twitter tweeted a graphic celebrating their accomplishment of being the first team to 30 wins, featuring players such as ace pitcher Gerrit Cole, and sluggers Giancarlo Stanton and Aaron Judge.

Return Of The “Evil Empire”
The Yankees only continue to dominate seemingly everybody they face.
They did lose two out of three games to the Chicago White Sox over the weekend, but that clearly has not slowed them down.
Any doubts that anybody had about this team heading into the season have pretty much been put to rest.
The Yankees are proving everybody wrong and showing the baseball world what kind of team they truly are and what was envisioned when Cole was signed following the conclusion of the 2019 season.
The “Evil Empire” is back in full force.
They get clutch hits, they have power, speed, and some truly dominant starting pitching.
Clearly, anybody who expected them to struggle has been proven dead wrong.
Everything is clicking for these Yankees, and now they are the first team in baseball to reach 30 wins.
If this keeps up, they surely have a shot at winning 100-plus games as the season draws closer to the halfway point.
The Yankees have become the evil empire again and are a fully operational Death Star.
