According to STATS, Alex Rodriguez's two-run shot off the Red Sox's Jon Lester on Friday was the Yankees' 127th homer at home this season, breaking their previous record which was made at Yankee Stadium in both 2004 and 2005.
Five home games remain for the Yankees this season, two games against the Red Sox and three against the Royals. The Yankees are also in reach of their all-time club record of 242 home runs, which also set in 2004. Rodriguez, who has missed five weeks recovering from right hip surgery earlier this season, ranks second on the Yankees with 28 home runs, 18 of them at home. Johnny Damon and Derek Jeter have combined to hit 29 of their 41 homers at Yankee Stadium.
