Try it free At long last — the first time in a week — the Yankees have won a game. It was not the prettiest way to get off the schneid, but off the schneid they finally are. Back-to-back home runs from a pair of slumping hitters, Trent Grisham and Paul Goldschmidt, gave the Yankees a lead in the second inning and they were able to make it stand to snap a six-game losing streak with a 7-3 win over the Angels on a sweltering Thursday afternoon in The Bronx. Carlos Rodón gave up a season-high three home runs but they were all of the solo variety, allowing the Yankees (43-31) to avoid a four-game sweep at the hands of the Angels (36-38). As they have too often over the past week, the Yankees made another baserunning blunder that ended a rally too early in what was then a 4-3 game. 4 Paul Goldschmidt rounds the bases on his home run in the second inning during the Yankees' win over the Angels on June 19, 2025.

Charles Wenzelberg / New York Post This time it was Austin Wells taking off from first base too early before a full-count, two-out pitch to DJ LeMahieu in the sixth inning, with lefty Tyler Anderson throwing over and eventually picking off Anthony Volpe in between second and third. But an inning later, Cody Bellinger capped off a three-hit day with an RBI single to right field that scored Grisham, who had doubled, for a key insurance run. (Though the inning ended on the play as Bellinger was thrown out at second trying to advance on the throw home). Then, after the second rain delay of the game (this one 35 minutes), the Yankees padded their lead with a pair of runs in the bottom of the eighth. Aaron Judge started the rally with a double, his first extra-base hit since homering off Garrett Crochet last Friday. He went 1-for-3 with a walk, improving to 4-for-31 over his last nine games. In relief of Rodón, Mark Leiter Jr., Jonathan Loáisiga and Devin Williams made sure the lead held to secure the Yankees' first win since beating the Royals 1-0 last Thursday. Mike Trout took Rodón deep with two outs in the top of the first, but the Yankees quickly tied it up in the bottom of the inning. Goldschmidt led off with a double down the line before Bellinger reached on an infield single. 4 Carlos Rodon pitches against the Angels during the Yankees' win on June 19, 2025. Charles Wenzelberg / New York Post After Judge struck out, Giancarlo Stanton picked him up by hitting into a fielder's choice that scored Goldschmidt from third. Jo Adell then homered off Rodón in the top of the second, but again the Yankees had an immediate answer. This one came in the form of a two-out, two-run home run from Grisham, his first since May 30, to take a 3-2 lead. 4 The Yankees grounds crew rolls out the tarp during a rain delay in the eighth inning on June 19, 2025. Charles Wenzelberg / New York Post Two pitches later, Goldschmidt made it back-to-back jacks. Grisham, batting ninth for the first time since April, came into the day batting .180 with a .551 OPS and one home run over his last 28 games. He had homered 12 times in his first 35 games before cooling off, but looked more like late-April/early-May Grisham on Thursday. Goldschmidt, meanwhile, entered the day batting .150 with a .432 OPS and one home run over his last 17 games. But the lefty masher took advantage of Anderson, clubbing his fifth homer of the year off a southpaw (out of eight overall).

Red Sox hit 5 home runs and overcome 2 by Judge in 11-7 win over Yankees
NEW YORK (AP) — Carlos Narváez put Boston ahead with a three-run homer against his former team, and the Red Sox overcame two home runs by Aaron Judge in an 11-7 victory over the New York Yankees on Sunday night. Rafael Devers also went deep as Boston equaled a season high with five longballs to take two of three games at Yankee Stadium in the first series this season between the longtime rivals. Narváez signed with the Yankees in 2015 and broke into the big leagues with them last year, getting into six games before New York traded him to Boston in December. The rookie catcher gave the Red Sox a 5-3 lead in the sixth inning by lifting a fastball from Carlos Rodón (8-4) into the left-field seats. Judge hit a pair of two-run homers for his fourth multihomer game this season and the 43rd of his career. He connected in the first off rookie Hunter Dobbins (3-1) and again in the ninth, ending the night with a .396 batting average. Boston rookie Kristian Campbell hit a two-run homer to the short porch in right field off Rodón in the fifth. Abraham Toro and Trevor Story hit back-to-back solo shots in the eighth off Jonathan Loáisiga. Jarren Duran had a two-run single off Yankees reliever Tim Hill in the sixth. Toro added an RBI double in the ninth. Dobbins allowed three runs and four hits in five innings. A day after telling the Boston Herald, 'If the Yankees were the last team to give me a contract, I'd retire,' Dobbins heard little reaction from the crowd of 45,140. DJ LeMahieu homered in the fifth to give New York a 3-2 lead. Rodón permitted five runs and three hits in five-plus innings. The left-hander lost for the first time in eight decisions since April 13. Key moments Garrett Whitlock retired LeMahieu on a bases-loaded grounder to end the sixth after the Yankees had cut it to 7-5. … Aroldis Chapman, the seventh Boston reliever, fanned Anthony Volpe with two on for his 11th save. Key stats Boston scored 27 runs in the series, its most in a three-game set at Yankee Stadium since 2005. … Loáisiga has allowed four homers in nine appearances since returning from elbow surgery. Up next Red Sox RHP Brayan Bello (2-1, 3.91 ERA) opens a three-game series in Boston against Tampa Bay RHP Shane Baz (5-3, 4.96) on Monday night. Yankees LHP Max Fried (8-1, 1.78 ERA) opposes rookie LHP Noah Cameron (2-1, 0.85) in the opener of a three-game series Tuesday at Kansas City. ___ More AP baseball:

Yankees pitching implodes as Red Sox launch five homers in missed chance for early AL East statement
If the Red Sox hang around and pester the Yankees later this season, Aaron Boone & Co. might remember an early June series in which they tried to stomp on Boston's throat and slipped. Access the Yankees beat like never before Join Post Sports+ for exciting subscriber-only features, including real-time texting with Greg Joyce about the inside buzz on the Yankees. Try it free A game and series got away from the Yankees, largely because too many pitches from Carlos Rodón and the relievers who followed also got away, during an 11-7 prime-time loss in front of 45,140 on a breezy Sunday night. Advertisement Walks and hit-by-pitches haunted Yankees pitchers, though not as much as the five home runs Boston hitters clubbed to first overcome a two-run deficit and later to gain separation. After the Yankees cruised to a victory Friday, they were trampled in letting up double-digit runs in the second and third games of the series. In dropping the rubber game, the Yankees (39-25) lost just a second series in their past 10 and allowed Boston (32-35) to crawl to 8.5 games back in the AL East. 6 Carlos Rodón reacts after allowing a home run during the Yankees' loss to the Red Sox on June 8. Corey Sipkin for the NY Post Advertisement 6 Carlos Narváez (75) celebrates after hitting a home run during the Red Sox's win against the Yankees on June 8. Corey Sipkin for the NY Post The Yankees still are comfortably in front in the division, but surely would have preferred sending an early statement in the year's first matchup between the blood rivals. The Yankees wasted home runs No. 22 and 23 from Aaron Judge, who bookended the night with two-run, opposite-field shots in the first and last innings. The Yankees tried to get the tying run to the plate in the ninth, but Aroldis Chapman de-batted Anthony Volpe on a strikeout to strand two. Advertisement Judge had given his club a lead six pitches into the bottom of the first, and the Yankees lost the edge at the same time as their pitchers lost control. In the fifth, a previously rolling Rodón could not locate. He walked Ceddanne Rafaela and two pitches later left a four-seamer in the middle of the plate and was punished for it, Kristian Campbell visiting the short porch to tie the game. Advertisement DJ LeMahieu — 9-for-21 this month — continued his upturn with his own home run into the right field seats to give the Yankees the lead back in the bottom of the inning, but it was short-lived. 6 Fernando Cruz reacts after getting pulled during the Yankees' loss on June 8. Corey Sipkin for the NY Post 6 Carlos Narváez connects on a home run during the Yankees' loss on June 8. Corey Sipkin for the NY POST Rodón and the Yankees bullpen spiraled during a five-run, 10-batter, two-walk, one-HBP sixth that dug a hole too steep for the offense to escape. An old problem surfaced for Rodón, who had allowed five home runs in his first four starts this season and then let up just three in his next nine outings. Late-March, early-April Rodón issued too many walks that would inevitably come back to hurt when a poor pitch became, say, a three-run homer rather than a solo shot — which is precisely what happened in the sixth. CHECK OUT THE LATEST MLB STANDINGS AND YANKEES STATS Advertisement Rodón drilled Rafael Devers with a sinker, walked Rob Refsnyder on five pitches and then watched former Yankee Carlos Narváez turn on an inside fastball and crush a three-run homer to left. Boone pulled Rodón, but Fernando Cruz and Tim Hill had no better luck in the frame. Cruz loaded the bases on two hits and a walk before leaving a three-on, two-out jam for Hill, who had not allowed a hit with the bases loaded all season. That stat is no longer true, opposing hitters now 1-for-12 with the bases juiced against Hill after Jarren Duran singled through the middle to drive in another to put Boston ahead, 7-3. Advertisement 6 Cody Bellinger reacts after popping out during the Yankees' loss to the Red Sox on June 8. Corey Sipkin for the NY POST 6 Aaron Judge rounds the bases after hitting a home run during the Yankees' loss June 8. Robert Sabo for the NY Post The Yankees tried to answer with two runs in the sixth, when Jazz Chisholm Jr. lifted a sacrifice fly and Trent Grisham worked a well-earned, bases-loaded run to drive in another, but the Red Sox ran away late against a Yankees bullpen that has had better nights. Jonathan Loáisiga was victimized by back-to-back shots from Abraham Toro and Trevor Story in the eighth. Advertisement Boston piled on in the ninth against Brent Headrick, who allowed two runs (one on a monster shot from Devers). The Yankees offense could not hang with the Red Sox offense, though not because of a lack of motivation. Advertisement They surely wanted to pound Hunter Dobbins, who a day earlier told the Boston Herald he would sooner retire than play for the Yankees. Dobbins, who allowed three runs in five innings, was the winning pitcher and should not be looking for work soon.

Will Carlos Rodon play tonight against Cleveland Guardians? Latest update on New York Yankees star's injury report (June 4, 2025)
Image Source: Getty The New York Yankees will face the Cleveland Guardians at 7:05 PM ET and everyone wants to see if Carlos Rodón will be in the lineup. Rodón has done very well this season and the Yankees need him to succeed. Here is the current update about his injury. Carlos Rodón set to pitch against Guardians The New York Yankees have made a statement regarding Carlos Rodón and his pitching assignment: he will start against the Cleveland Guardians tonight at Yankee Stadium. This southpaw has carried his team this year with a fine 7-3 record while holding down a 2.60 ERA. Rodón has been phenomenal over the last eight starts, shutting down opposing teams and surrendering only a run in 3 games, putting together an even more glistening ERA of 1.27 during that time. One of Rodón's best attributes is strikeouts, and he's high in whiff percentage, which essentially makes him impenetrable. He's faced Cleveland quite a number of times, winning 9, dropping 5, with a 2.66 ERA in those 22 games. Reports suggested that he is fit and ready to pitch. Fans can look forward to Rodón delivering a solid game, aiming to help the Yankees win at home. This news is exciting for Yankees fans, who see Rodón as a key player in their strong 36-22 season. His matchup against Cleveland's pitcher Tanner Bibee should be a fun battle. Rodón's recent performance, like his seven scoreless innings against the Angels, shows he's in great form. The Yankees count on him to keep Cleveland's hitters under control. Also Read: Dodgers' Shohei Ohtani eyes third consecutive MVP award with red-hot performance in MLB Yankees' pitching stays strong despite injuries The Yankees' pitching team has had some problems this year, with injuries to big names like Gerrit Cole and Luis Gil. Cole is out all season after elbow surgery, and Gil is sidelined until summer with a back injury. Even with those problems Rodón has been a steady pitcher working well with Max Fried. Last year, he pitched 32 games with a 3.96 ERA, showing he's back to form after a tough 2023. This year, he's striking out 11 per 9 like he did in his All-Star years of 2021 and 2022. The Yankees' hitters are 2nd in power so the pitchers benefit. Tonight's game against Cleveland, who are 32-26, is big. Rodón's start is key, and the Yankees' hitters are ready to back him up. Jazz Chisholm Jr.'s return from injury makes the Yankees' lineup even stronger, helping Rodón. The team's 18-9 record at home gives them a boost. Rodón has done well against Cleveland's star José Ramírez, keeping him to a .220 batting average. As the Yankees aim for the playoffs, Rodón's health and pitching are super important.
