Tampa Bay Rays right fielder Josh Lowe is expected back Wednesday vs. the New York Yankees after missing three games with right oblique tightness.

The New York Yankees crushed a franchise record-tying nine home runs in a dominant 13-3 win over the Tampa Bay Rays on Tuesday.

The New York Yankees and Tampa Bay Rays complete a two-game series at Steinbrenner Field in Tampa on Wednesday night.

Giancarlo Stanton and Cody Bellinger both hit two home runs, Aaron Judge launched his 40th of the season and the New York Yankees matched a franchise record with nine longballs in a 13-3 win over the Tampa Bay Rays.

Their team name is the New York Yankees, but Tuesday night's game against the Rays was when the Yankees channeled their other nickname, the Bronx Bombers. The Yankees have won six out of their last eight games played, trending back in the right direction as the end of the season approaches.

Cody Bellinger was one of three New York Yankees players to homer twice in a nine-homer barrage, leading to an MLB record and domination of the Tampa Bay Rays.

BOTTOM LINE: The New York Yankees take on the Tampa Bay Rays after Cody Bellinger had four hits against the Rays on Tuesday. Tampa Bay has a 32-31 record in home games and a 61-65 record overall. The Rays are 10th in the AL with 137 total home runs, averaging 1.1 per game.

According to Bryan Hoch of MLB .com, that makes the Yankees the first team in Major League Baseball history with multiple nine-homer games, period. The fact that they did so twice in the same season is the type of baseball oddity that makes the game so fun to watch.

The tarp at Steinbrenner Field was rolled out about eight minutes before the 7:35 p.m. scheduled start time between the Yankees and Rays.
