When the final pitch was thrown in the Yankees’ series opener with the Rockies at Coors Field on Friday night, the NBA’s Pacers were trending on social media thanks to their win over the Knicks in Game 2 of the Eastern Conference Finals.

This is how 30-20 versus 9-42 is supposed to look: in the midst of the Yankees’ 10-run fifth inning, Paul Goldschmidt lining an RBI single to right field that Rockies second baseman Adael Amador could only fling his glove up at, unsuccessfully of course.

The Yankees produced a 10-run fifth inning en route to a 13-1 win over the Rockies on Saturday, and some franchise history was made at the plate and on the mound.

If Friday night’s deflating loss to the team with the worst 50-game start to a season in the Modern Era (since 1900) could be likened to a bad dream, Saturday’s 13-1 Yankees rout of the Rockies at Coors Field was a satisfying return to reality.

The Yankees’ slugger crossed the final stadium off his list Friday night with a towering shot at Coors Field, launching a solo home run to center field in the sixth inning. It came in his first career game at the hitter-friendly park and marked his 17th long ball of the season.
