Sam Dekker and Milwaukee Brewers fans are concerned after watching Nestor Cortes and the pitching staff give up nine home runs and 20 runs to the New York Yankees on Saturday.

New York's first three homers came off the first three pitches of the game -- an MLB record -- as Judge later hit a grand slam and finished with eight RBI
A year ago, it took Aaron Judge 25 games to hit four home runs.
Paul Goldschmidt, Cody Bellinger and Aaron Judge went back-to-back-to-back on the first three pitches of the game from ex-Yankee Nestor Cortes, the first time ever that the Yankees have started a game with three consecutive homers.

Aaron Judge homered in his first at-bat, Jazz Chisholm Jr. homered twice and the New York Yankees went deep four more times in a 12-3 victory over the Milwaukee Brewers on Sunday, a day after becoming the third team in major league history to hit nine homers in a game.
