it was fun working with catcher Ben Rortvedt for the first time this season.

“We made a lot of good pitches. We worked out of a jam in the fifth. We kept the damage low and stayed efficient until we got to the seventh,”

Today was a really nice stroke for him“I told him on the bench I felt … maybe like six weeks ago, he hit a ball even harder than that. Somebody went over the wall and robbed him. That’s the way things were going. 

“He was able to hit that ball today so pure and give us a lead. You know he is going to fight and put up a quality at-bat. With a hitter like DJ, the more often that you get him in there, the more often he gets quality at-bats. Things are going to break his way. He is too good of a hitter. It’s nice to see him push us over with the lead and get the go-ahead run today.

Following DJ Lemahieu hitting home run Giancarlo Stanton hitting two-run home run scoring Billy McKinney DJ Lemahieu was asked he was back to being the consistent hitter that he was with the Yankees in 2019 and ‘20, the year he won the batting title,

His response?

I feel like I’m in a good place. The best years I’ve had, I felt I could do a little bit better. The season I’ve had this year, I know I have quite a bit more to give. Hopefully, [I can] help the team keep going, make the playoffs and win the World Series. That’s kind of where I’m at.”

Following New York the team that wears the pinstripes 5-2 win following Gerrit Cole pitching 6.1 innings surrendering 5 hits, 2 earned runs , 1 walk while striking out 10 Kansas City batters Kansas City manager Matt Quatraro had this to say!

"Any time you play and you know Cole is pitching, runs are going to be at a premium,”“I thought we competed well against him. Two runs isn't a lot of runs, but the way the at-bats went, [we] made him work. We had a couple of opportunities, but there's a reason that he's one of the elite pitchers in recent baseball."
