NEW YORK -- Jazz Chisholm Jr. sprinted from third base on a ninth-inning wild pitch, and as the Yankees infielder stamped his left foot across home plate, it felt as though they had finally caught the break they had sorely needed. This has been a “terrible week” to wear pinstripes,

NEW YORK -- Aaron Judge doesn’t enjoy sitting still, and the Yankees’ captain certainly doesn’t like what he’s been seeing. Unable to help between the lines as he continues to await reimaging on a fractured right first rib, Judge said he expects better results in July after the Bombers wrapped

NEW YORK -- Ryan McMahon was scratched from a scheduled Minor League rehab assignment with Double-A Somerset on Wednesday, as several Yankees may be dealing with an outbreak of food poisoning, manager Aaron Boone said. Trent Grisham remains scheduled to play for Double-A Somerset against Hartford, with first pitch scheduled

NEW YORK -- Cam Schlittler has spent most of his brief big league career dominating opponents, which is why a matchup against the Tigers’ Tarik Skubal should have been electric: this year’s American League’s Cy Young Award front-runner taking on an ace who has already brought home the hardware twice.

NEW YORK -- Max Fried was back in action on the Yankee Stadium mound Tuesday, an encouraging sight as the hurler works toward returning from a left elbow bone bruise that has kept him out of the rotation since May 13. The Yankees were also watching the hitters closely. Trent

NEW YORK -- The Yankees appear to be working toward an August return for captain Aaron Judge, with manager Aaron Boone saying on Tuesday that the slugger may still be a “couple weeks” away from reimaging his fractured rib. That suggests the Yankees’ captain could undergo those tests toward the

NEW YORK -- Austin Wells began a Minor League rehab assignment with Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre on Tuesday, an encouraging sign after the catcher was sidelined by cervical headaches, but the Yankees may not welcome Trent Grisham or Giancarlo Stanton back to their lineup until next month.

BOSTON – It took until the eighth inning for the Yankees to register their first hit on Sunday, and Amed Rosario watched from first base as Sonny Gray basked in a standing ovation following that pitch, making any Fenway Park comeback feel like a long shot. “Sometimes,” Rosario said, “you’ve

BOSTON – Jazz Chisholm Jr. was standing in the batter’s box for the first pitch of Sunday’s game against the Red Sox, having successfully lobbied to serve as the Yankees’ leadoff hitter. He wasn’t around to see the last one.

BOSTON – As Gerrit Cole describes it, an important mental shift occurred right around the moment Willson Contreras’ third-inning drive bounced off the Green Monster, chasing home two more Red Sox runs. Walking back to the mound, Cole received an underhand flip from first baseman Paul Goldschmidt, then accepted that

BOSTON – The Yankees expect to activate Trent Grisham from the 10-day injured list during their homestand that begins Monday, manager Aaron Boone said on Saturday, noting that the outfielder’s stabilizing presence has been missed. “He settles things a lot,” Boone said.

BOSTON – Willson Contreras likes the idea of adding spice to the historic rivalry between the Yankees and the Red Sox, saying that anything that gets people talking “makes baseball fun.” If that’s the mission, he’s doing his part.

BOSTON – Aaron Judge and Giancarlo Stanton made it to Fenway Park this weekend, with manager Aaron Boone describing it as “a sight for sore eyes” to see the sluggers duck through the doorway into the visitors’ clubhouse. The stars were here mostly for moral support, but the Yankees could

BOSTON – Cam Schlittler grew up some 30 miles outside Boston’s limits in the green suburb of Walpole, Mass., constantly envisioning what it would be like to pitch from the slope of Fenway Park’s mound. Nights like this weren’t what he had in mind.

NEW YORK -- The Yankees have shuffled their rotation, recalling right-hander Elmer Rodríguez from Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre to start Sunday in place of right-hander Gerrit Cole, who is now scheduled to pitch Monday at Detroit. Yankees manager Aaron Boone announced the changes after Saturday’s 10-2 loss to the Reds, coming as

NEW YORK – The Reds were on Gerrit Cole’s mind, having circled this as his date to pitch. That shifted sometime this weekend, when the right-hander learned the Yankees would adjust their rotation – a nod to their current string of 16 consecutive games without an off-day. “I think it’s

NEW YORK -- Austin Wells rejoined the Yankees for the series finale against the Reds. The club announced the move Sunday morning. Wells has been on the 10-day injured list since June 6 with cervical headaches. He has played three Minor League rehab games with Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre, including a two-homer

NEW YORK – Every fifth day, the Yankees have developed an enjoyable habit: hand the ball to Will Warren, then shake hands to celebrate a victory. As veteran Paul Goldschmidt put it: “I have no idea what his stats are, but it feels like we’ve got a chance to win

NEW YORK -- There was nothing complicated about Cam Schlittler’s plan on Friday night: Here comes the heat, now try and hit it. For the most part, the Reds couldn’t. The right-hander turned in one of the most overpowering performances of his young career in the Yankees’ 5-0 victory in

NEW YORK -- Jazz Chisholm Jr.’s Yankees teammates have learned that their lockers are now community spaces. On any given day, the infielder may be spotted helping himself to one of their bats, a loose-fitting pair of pants, or any T-shirt that catches his eye. At least they don’t need

NEW YORK – Even though the Yankees’ bullpen has quietly stabilized over the last several weeks, most industry sources expect general manager Brian Cashman to aggressively pursue upgrades ahead of the Trade Deadline.
