In New York, Jung Hoo Lee hit back-to-back home runs off Carlos Rodón for his first career multi-homer game, leading the San Francisco Giants to a 5-4 comeback victory over the Yankees. The Giants have now won nine of their last 12 games, marking their first regular-season series win in the Bronx. On the other hand, the Yankees have stumbled, losing five of their last seven games and three of their last four series. With a 5.40 ERA, their starters are currently tied with Baltimore for the highest in the major leagues.
Rodón struggled, giving up four runs in 5 2/3 innings, while Lee’s home runs were pivotal for the Giants. Rookie Christian Koss also made an impact with his first major league hit, helping San Francisco secure the win. Despite a late homer by Jazz Chisholm Jr. for the Yankees, the Giants held on for the victory.
Looking ahead, the Giants will face the Phillies with RHP Landon Roupp taking the mound, while the Yankees will have Carlos Carrasco pitching against the Royals.
