With Aaron Judge on the injured list, the Yankees dropped Game 2 of the series after Philly also won Game 3. The Phillies look for a sweep Sunday.
BOTTOM LINE: The New York Yankees aim to stop a three-game slide when they take on the Philadelphia Phillies. New York has a 30-21 record at home and a 56-48 record overall. The Yankees have gone 36-13 in games when they scored five or more runs.
Jones has been on fire since his Triple-A promotion. He has 13 home runs in 19 games, a .308 batting average and 1.079 OPS in combined high-A and Triple-A action this season, including a three-homer game last week. That’s putting new power on display just as the trade deadline looms in July.
Paul Goldschmidt wishes he had played it differently during the Yankees' game against the Phillies. Instead of attempting an off-balance throw to home plate, he believes he should have gone for the out at first base.
Ryan McMahon is now a New York Yankee. The former Colorado Rockie recently shared that he had always dreamed of playing for the Yankees.
To their credit, the Yankees — who are now 5 1/2 back in the division — are already getting aggressive ahead of the July 31 trade deadline. New York acquired Colorado Rockies third baseman Ryan McMahon for two pitching prospects on Friday, and the 30-year-old is expected to make his Yankees debut on Saturday afternoon.
