J.C. Escarra was one more "no" away from retiring while playing indy ball in '23. He was working several jobs on the side and got the break he needed to keep his MLB dream alive. A deep dive into @jcescarra's improbable & inspiring path to the #Yankees:.

Aaron Boone on this “terrible week” for the #Yankees: . “As trite or as corny as it sounds, these are the moments that build character within a team. And also help you find out what the heck you need moving forward and where you need to change.”.

The #Yankees now trail 7-2 in the fifth after Pete Alonso's two-run shot. Not the start they needed today from Carlos Rodón. This will be the Yankees' sixth loss in a row if they can't come back over these last four frames in Flushing.

That was Austin Wells' first home run since June 10 in Kansas City. Wells entered play today hitting .167/.212/.229 in those 15 games since his last homer. Let's see if that swing off Frankie Montas gets him going. .

Carlos Rodón just gave up a grand slam to Brandon Nimmo in the first inning. The only out Rodón has recorded so far was a sac bunt from Juan Soto.

Since the beginning of 2024, Schmidt ranks 18th in ERA (3.07) among starters who have thrown 160+ innings. His .212 BAA is tied for the 11th-best in MLB in that span.
Clarke Schmidt had a breakout season in the #Yankees' rotation cut short last year by a lat strain. He dealt with shoulder issues this spring. Schmidt took another step forward as a starter this season and now, he's likely out until 2027 (his final year before free agency).

Clarke Schmidt will likely undergo Tommy John surgery, Aaron Boone says. He’s getting second opinions now.

That inning could've been a lot worse for the #Yankees, Ian Hamilton was hit hard on pitches right over the heart of the plate. Even the Taylor flyout — before Tim Hill entered for the top of the order — was a hanging slider up in the zone.

Marcus Stroman's final line: 5 IP, 7 H, 3 ER, 1 BB, 4 K. Juan Soto had his number (3-for-3 with a 2-R HR in the first). He worked in and out of a few jams. If the #Yankees hold this lead, it'll be back-to-back wins for Stroman since returning from the IL.

The #Yankees have four home runs through five innings this afternoon and Jasson Domínguez has two of them. JD goes the other way again from the left side, this time for a two-run shot to give the Yankees a 5-3 lead.

Aaron Judge did not like that third strike call from home plate ump Mike Estabrook. He had every right to be upset.
