The New York Yankees opened the 2025 season by hitting 15 home runs in their first three games. The display of power not only helped the defending American League champions secure a series sweep of the Milwaukee Brewers, it also tied the 2006 Detroit Tigers for the most homers by a team in its first three games in MLB history. The 2006 Tigers reached the World Series after finishing the regular season with 203 home runs, short of the MLB single-season record of 307 jointly held by the 2019 Minnesota Twins and 2023 Atlanta Braves.
