SportsTranscript
00:00In the opener against the Bronx Bombers, where New York did exactly that. Six home runs as a team. Multiple homers off the bat of Aaron Judge. He now has 39 this year. Multiple home runs off the bat of Jazz Chisholm in his second day with the Yankees. Juan Soto pours in three RBIs. Ben Rice goes deep, as does Anthony Volpe, all to the tune of a 14-4 win for New York yesterday.
00:30Over Philadelphia.
00:31Absolute hammer job there.
00:33And if you're the Yankees, it feels like a double win.
00:35You get that old Zach Wheeler, who's basically been untouchable, particularly at home for the Philadelphia Phillies.
00:39And your bats came out to play.
00:41Soto, Judge, the big guys in the lineup.
00:43Look, if you're getting six combined RBI out of those two guys, you know that offense is going to be cruising all the way through.
00:48And anything that you get outside of those two players is basically a cherry on top, which means you won by 10 runs against the Phillies in their own building.
00:57We'll get to the Philadelphia Phillies in a second, but now the Yankees sit at 63 and 45.
01:01Chisholm coming over and adding in.
01:03Also, keep in mind, sooner or later, it's probably going to catch up to you.
01:07In Major League Baseball, just like any other sport, you can't just put players in positions they don't play.
01:12Like Jazz Chisholm getting a start at third base.
01:14That can't be long-term for them.
01:16And I love the fact that Gleyber Torres, who is an infielder, is basically saying, I'm not moving for second base to help this team out.
01:22I'm never going over there.
01:23OK, let's just throw Jazz Chisholm at third base.
01:25It worked out last night, but you know in the biggest moments, Ben, that's not going to be something you're going to be able to do long-term at this point.
01:31But it's working for the Yankees.
01:32Added some pop to that lineup.
01:34First couple games have shown that.
01:35Great win for the Yankees.
01:36We'll see where they go from here.
01:37And also, Derek Cole was on the mound tonight, too, to take on Aaron Nola.
01:41But last night, Kiel versus Wheeler.
01:43Kiel wins that matchup.
01:44You'll take that every single day of the week for the Yanks.
