KANSAS CITY, Mo.<\/strong> \u2013 Yankees manager Aaron Boone watched the hits begin to pile up on the massive, crown-shaped scoreboard beyond the centerfield wall at Kauffman Stadium, and he knew that his team was doing something impressive against the Kansas City Royals.<\/p>\n

He didn’t know until afterward that it was something historic.<\/p>\n

Yes, there were six home runs, including two from Amed Rosario. And the Yankees put up 24 hits in the 15-1 romp<\/a>, their most since a game against Baltimore in July 2011. But what set the performance apart from all others Tuesday night \u2014 including all those games played by Lou Gehrig and Babe Ruth, Joe DiMaggio and Mickey Mantle \u2014 was this simple fact: For the first time in their storied history, the Yankees got at least two hits from every single player in their starting lineup.<\/p>\n

\u201cI did see all the hits on the board,\u201d Boone said afterward, \u201cand I was like, \u2018Man, you don\u2019t see that very often.’\u201d<\/p>\n

The Yankees had the benefit of facing the Royals on a designated bullpen day. Struggling reliever Bailey Falter was first on the mound, and he allowed as many hits (seven) as he record outs. Luinder Avila wasn’t a whole lot better when he replaced him.<\/p>\n

The last of the hits came against outfielder Tyler Tolbert, who threw a steady diet of 44 mph pitches to get through the ninth inning.<\/p>\n

Yet that doesn’t take away from one of the impressive hitting performances in Yankees history. Their hit total tied for their eighth-most ever, and the 24 hits were their most in a road game since Aug. 31, 1974, in a game against the White Sox. <\/p>\n

The six homers were the most by a team in the majors this season.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe performance they put up today,\u201d Yankees pitcher Cam Schlittler said, \u201cthat was awesome to watch.\u201d<\/p>\n

The barrage began with Cody Bellinger’s second homer in as many days, a two-out shot in the first. But it really gained steam after Paul Goldschmidt’s double, when Ben Rice hit a sinking liner to right field that Royals outfielder Jac Caglianone lazily grabbed at grass level. Boone challenged the out call, and a review confirmed that the ball had touched the ground for an RBI single.<\/p>\n

Rosario came to the plate next and belted a two-run homer an estimated 420 feet to left field.<\/p>\n

Anthony Volpe added his first homer of the season in the second inning, and the Yankees piled on four more runs on a steady stream of singles in the third. Aaron Judge provided an RBI double in the fifth, Trent Grisham went deep in the seventh, Jazz Chisholm Jr. \u2014 the last of the starters to get two hits \u2014 homered in the eighth and Rosario hit his second of the game in the ninth.<\/p>\n

He sheepishly admitted that he was just trying not to strike out against Tolbert’s languid lobs to the plate.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt feels good to be part of history,\u201d Rosario said through a translator. \u201cIt’s a team effort and being part of it is great.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Yankees have now hit 82 home runs this season, by far the most in the majors. The Royals, by comparison, have hit 51, including the solo homer that Bobby Witt Jr. hit in the third inning for their only run of the entire game.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, the 24 hits that the Royals allowed were the fourth-most in a game in franchise history. Rosario finished with four hits while Grisham, Rice, Volpe and Austin Wells had three apiece. The rest of the starters each had two.<\/p>\n

\u201cLook,\u201d Boone said with a smile, \u201cas hard as hitting is \u2014 as hard as it is now, night-in and night-out \u2014 to have a day where everyone, you know, can fatten up a little bit, it’s good.\u201d<\/p>\n
