WEST SACRAMENTO, Calif. — Jasson Domínguez hit three homers and drove in seven runs to lead the Yankees to a 10-2 victory over the Athletics on Friday night.
Domínguez and Paul Goldschmidt hit back-to-back solo shots off Osvaldo Bido in the third inning to open the scoring. Domínguez then added another solo shot in the seventh against Hogan Harris and a grand slam in the eighth against Elvis Alvarado for his 11th career home run. Domínguez also hit a sacrifice fly.
That gave more than enough support to Will Warren (2-2), who allowed one run in 7 1/3 innings to lead the Yankees to their third straight win.
The A's have lost three straight and fell to 7-12 at their temporary home in California's capital region.
The A's had their second largest crowd of the season at 12,049 with many in attendance cheering for the Yankees and slugger Aaron Judge. Judge hit a double high off the wall in the first and finished 1-for-4 with an intentional walk that drew boos from the crowd.
Key moment
There was a confusing moment in the fifth inning when Goldschmidt hit a blooper to center with runners on first and second that JJ Bleday trapped. Third-base umpire Tom Hanahan initially ruled it a catch only to have it overturned.
Trent Grisham scored from second on the play but was sent back to third by the umpires, who ruled he wouldn't have scored had the play been called correctly from the start. It proved moot when Domínguez followed with a sacrifice fly.
Key stat
Domínguez became the youngest Yankee ever with a three-homer game at 22 years, 91 days. The previous youngest was Joe DiMaggio at 22 years, 200 days on June 13, 1937, against the Browns.
Up next
Former Yankees pitcher JP Sears (4-2, 2.92 ERA) seeks his first career win in his sixth start against his former team. Carlos Rodón (4-3, 2.96 ERA) will start for New York.
