Judge’s third four-hit game of the year pushed his average back up to .409, and he’s leading the majors with 63 hits through 40 games played. 23 more hits than games played is already a career-high total for him. He had 22 more hits than games played (180 to 158) while batting a career-best .322 last year.

It was his first start since Sept. 28, 2023 and first win as a starter since July 20 of that season. Yarbrough has 54 career wins, but most of them have come as a bulk guy or long reliever. With his velocity up a tad and his strikeout rate also taking a step forward, he should be just fine for however long the Yankees want to start him. However, since the team has off days Thursday and the following Monday, he’ll probably pitch in relief next time through.

Rice’s homer off Mitch Spence made it a 10-1 game in the fifth. It was his first homer since he hit two on Apr. 29 and ninth overall. He’s been losing the occasional start because of the desire to include Trent Grisham in the Yankees lineup, but he should retain mixed-league value at least until Giancarlo Stanton returns.

The 28-year-old backstop finally got the Snakes on the board with a run-scoring double off of Ben Casparius in the seventh inning, pulling them to within four runs at 5-1. That would be as close as they would get. On the season, he’s now slashing .205/.286/.341 with a homer and five RBI in his first 52 plate appearances.

The 27-year-old backstop hit a sacrifice fly off of Tyler Anderson in the fifth inning that tied the game at 2-2. He then plated a run with a sacrifice bunt during the O’s three-run uprising in the sixth inning. He’s just 1-for-9 (.111) since joining the Orioles at the end of April, but at least he now has a couple of RBI to his credit.

A nice send off for Bud Black, who was let go after the game. Goodman’s homer was his first since Apr. 28, and the triple was his first since 2023. The double, though, might have been the most interesting of his hits. His line drive on Wandy Peralta left the bat at 116.2 mph, a new career high for him by 1.5 mph. It seems like a good sign for his future. However, with six road games coming up, this isn’t the time to pick up Goodman in fantasy leagues.
