New York’s Anthony Volpe smashed a grand slam to keep the Yankees’ title hopes alive in the biggest moment of the 23-year-old’s career.

Volpe was the hero the five boroughs needed in front of a sold-out home crowd. He blasted a 380-foot home run to center field in the third inning and raced home again in the eighth.

Outfielder Alex Verdugo added an RBI, and catcher Austin Wells notched a solo home run, while second baseman Gleyber Torres had a three-run homer. Slugger Aaron Judge finally came alive after a dismal series with an RBI.
