Anthony Volpe returned to the Yankees lineup on Wednesday, recording three hits and five RBI in a 10-3 victory over the Colorado Rockies. The infielder, recently recalled from Triple-A, secured the win with a grand slam in the seventh inning at Yankee Stadium. Luis Garcia Jr. contributed a two-run home run in the first inning to help the Yankees complete a three-game series sweep. Starting pitcher Max Fried limited Colorado to one earned run over 3.1 innings before leaving the game due to a pitch count. Jazz Chisholm Jr. is currently on the injured list with a thumb injury, opening the path for Volpe to earn additional playing time at second base. The Yankees remain in pursuit of postseason positioning as they prepare for their next series.
