Ben Rice crushed a two-run homer in the third inning to give the Yankees a commanding 3-1 lead, his 24th blast of the season and another reminder of his power surge. With the Yankees facing lefties and needing big contributions, Rice is stepping up alongside Judge and Bellinger to deliver when it matters most. This offensive firepower is exactly what they need to keep momentum rolling as they push through the schedule.

The Yankees bullpen is heating up as trade deadline rumors swirl—Camilo Doval’s inconsistency, Jake Bird’s rise, and Tim Hill’s durability make for a messy but promising mix. With Carlos Lagrange sidelined by injury, options like Yovanny Cruz could step in. Offensively, Ryan Jeffers’ return from injury could be a game-changer at catcher. Jazz Chisholm Jr.’s puzzling slump might force a qualifying offer gamble—a risky but smart move in a weak free-agent market. For now, the Yankees’ path to glory? It’s a matter of time.

The Yankees crushed the Twins 5-2 in a game defined by missed opportunities and clutch Yankees plays — including a bizarre third-base bounce and a fan-glove mishap — as the Twins went 1-for-12 with runners in scoring position. After a rain delay, the Yankees pulled away in the seventh, and despite a bullpen swap, the Twins couldn’t mount a comeback, leaving runners stranded and getting shut down in the ninth as their Yankee Stadium woes deepened.
