BALTIMORE — As it turned out, the Yankees’ back-to-back-to-back home runs to lead off the game were just the tip of the iceberg.

The S.S. Oriole, captained by Kyle Gibson, stood no chance of surviving.

The New York Yankees dominated the Baltimore Orioles by scoring five runs through four home runs in the first inning. They continued to extend their lead throughout the game, ultimately winning 15-3 against their AL East opponents at Camden Yards on Tuesday evening.

Trent Grisham, Aaron Judge, and Ben Rice started the game with consecutive home runs within five pitches against Gibson, the experienced right-handed pitcher who was playing his first game of the season.

Rice hit another home run in the second inning, contributing to the Yankees’ total of 19 hits, with six of them being home runs. This game brought back memories of their 20-9 victory over the Brewers on March 29, showcasing their powerful batting performance.

They led off that bottom of the first with back-to-back-to-back homers on three pitches off Nestor Cortes.

That was also the first time in franchise history the Yankees belted four home runs in the first inning, and 31 days later they did it again.

Carlos Rodón was not to be overshadowed, though, as the left-hander retired the first 15 batters he faced before allowing a walk and a double to lead off the sixth inning.

He ended up pitching six strong innings in which he gave up two runs while striking out seven, his third straight quality start while lowering his ERA to 3.43.

But Rodón’s primary objective on Tuesday was getting his teammates back into the dugout so they could tee off at the plate again.

The Yankees ambushed Gibson for nine runs on 11 hits and two walks before he was mercifully pulled with two outs in the fourth inning.

They smoked seven balls off the bat at 100 mph or harder against the 37-year-old that the Orioles signed in March because they did not do enough to address their rotation in the offseason.

The only question by the end of the night was whether the Jets will be able to outscore the Yankees when they play across the street here against the Ravens this fall.

The offensive outburst began before Rodón even took the mound, as Grisham led off with a 412-foot blast to Eutaw Street, briefly tying him with Judge for the team lead with eight home runs before the captain crushed his ninth less than a minute later.

Rice, batting third for the second time this season, then drilled his first long ball of the night, clearing the same tall right field wall that Grisham and Judge did.

After Gibson temporarily plugged the gushing leak by getting Paul Goldschmidt to ground out, Cody Bellinger (2-for-4, two walks) opened it back up by ripping another homer to make it 4-0.

The only buzzkill on the night for the Yankees was Jazz Chisholm Jr. leaving the game in the top of the first inning with what the team called “right flank discomfort.”

He appeared to get hurt on a swing but, after getting checked on by a trainer, stayed in the game to take another and roped a double before being lifted for pinch runner Oswald Peraza.

Anthony Volpe followed with the first of his two doubles on the night to score Peraza and finish off the scoring, at least in the first inning.

The Yankees knocked Gibson out of the game with a two-out rally in the fourth inning, highlighted by an RBI single from Goldschmidt and a two-run single from Peraza.

After Goldschmidt added another RBI single in the fifth off Matt Bowman, Bellinger followed with a two-run double that made it 12-0 in a get-right game for the outfielder who had been scuffling.

Austin Wells was in danger of being the only member of the starting lineup without a hit, but he changed that in the ninth by going the other way for his fifth home run of the year.
