The 2022 New York Yankees are going to close out a June with a record at least 35 games over .500. It's patently absurd, and Andrew & Kunj can't get enough of it.

There was no way that the Astros series was going to be normal, right? The opener was three-run homer mayhem capped by Aaron Hicks' game-tying homer in the bottom of the ninth and Aaron Judge's walk-off hit. Next came dominance from Houston pitching as Justin Verlander shoved on Friday, Cristian Javier and two relievers combined on the first no-hitter against the Yankees in 19 years, and José Urquidy flirted with a no-no in the finale, too.

But Giancarlo Stanton, DJ LeMahieu, and that Judge guy again came back to stun the Astros, splitting the series at two victories apiece. As a palate cleanser, the Yankees hosted the last-place A's for three and took care of business with three wins in a row, though a few weird innings made things interesting.

Guest-starring in that A's series was the title character of our podcast episode, JP Sears, who filled in with 5.2 shutout innings. The Yankees' unofficial No. 6 starter has a 0.00 ERA. Again: Normal!
