Cody Bellinger Blasts Three Home Runs, Fuels Yankees' Win and All-Star Push

New York Yankees outfielder Cody Bellinger delivered a spectacular offensive showcase on Friday, hitting three two-run home runs against his former team, the Chicago Cubs, and tying his career high with six RBIs in an 11-0 shutout victory. This marked Bellinger's first career three-homer game and extended his impressive hitting streak to 16 games, becoming the third Yankees player this season to achieve such a feat. His significant contributions, which seamlessly complemented Carlos Rodon's dominant pitching and Aaron Judge's stellar defense, have prompted manager Aaron Boone to actively advocate for Bellinger to receive a late All-Star Game selection.
