The newest member of the New York Yankees is already making an impression, and he got some help from the captain.

In just the second game since the Yankees acquired Jazz Chisholm in a trade ahead of Tuesday's trade deadline, the lefty put together his first two-home run game of the season in a 14-4 win over the Philadelphia Phillies.

When the Yankees were up 12-4 in the top of the ninth inning, Chisholm faced position player Garrett Stubbs on the mound.

Chisholm launched a two-run homer with a little assistance from Aaron Judge's bat.

The caption of the X post said Chisholm hit two home runs with Judge's bat, but it was confirmed after the game that it was only the second home run.

Considering Judge himself had two home runs as his insane season continues, it's no surprise some of his mystique rubbed off on Chisholm.
