The New York Yankees have commenced the 2024 MLB season with a remarkable start, achieving a 5-0 record for the first time since 1992, highlighted by their four-game sweep against the Houston Astros and a 5-2 victory over the Diamondbacks. Juan Soto, recently acquired by the Yankees, has been instrumental in this early success, delivering significant performances including a go-ahead run in a 5-3 victory and a game-saving throw. Soto's contributions have earned him the American League Player of the Week award, boasting a .529 batting average and a 1.365 OPS in the opening series. Anthony Volpe also shined, going 4-for-4 against the Diamondbacks. Meanwhile, the Miami Marlins have faced a challenging start, falling to 0-5 for the first time in franchise history, with consecutive losses where they led by at least 4 runs early in the games. The Detroit Tigers also made headlines by starting 4-0 for the first time since 2015, while the Mets have struggled, beginning their season 0-4 for the first time since 2005.

The Marlins fall to the Angels 7-4 after leading 4-0 in the first inning. It’s the second day in a row they’ve blown a 4+ run lead they held in the first inning. They’re not 0-5 for the first time in franchise history and all 5 losses are at home. https://t.co/L6Yoho6qF3
With loss to Angels, Miami Marlins fall to 0-5 for first time in franchise history https://t.co/LPowKgDBge
Marlins fall to 0-5 (first time in franchise history) and also complete unusual trick of losing consecutive games (for the first time in their history) in which they led by at least 4 runs early. Maybe the 2050s will be their decade.
