The New York Yankees boast an effective offense that can produce runs. Boasting an impressive team batting average of 0.230, their consistent hitting has made 322 runs this season, which shows their ability to drive in baserunners and manufacture runs. One strength of their offense lies in its power hitting, having hit an impressive 106 home runs during their recent campaign alone! Their on-base percentage of 0.298 suggests moderate success getting on base; their slugging rate of 0.412 showcases both power-hitting ability and extra bases hit.
