Volpe homers and then forced from game when hit by pitch as Yankees beat Red Sox 9-6
NEW YORK -- Anthony Volpe homered in a five-run first inning, then came out after he was hit by a pitch on the left elbow as the New York Yankees beat the Boston Red Sox 9-6 on Friday night in the AL rivals' first meeting this year. Volpe was hit by an 88.2 mph pitch from Walker Buehler in the second, then was replaced at the start of the fourth. New York said Volpe was undergoing an X-ray and a CT scan. Aaron Judge had his ninth game with three or more hits, raising his major league-leading average to .397. Before a sellout crowd of 46,783, Jazz Chisholm Jr. had three hits, including a homer in the first, four RBIs and two stolen bases. Paul Goldschmidt also homered for the Yankees, who led 7-0 after the second and 8-1 following the fifth. Every starter had a hit for New York (39-23), which has won nine of 12 and 15 of 20 to move a season-high 16 games over .500. Boston dropped to 30-35 with its ninth loss in 12 games. The Red Sox made a pair of errors, raising their big league-high total to 57. Rafael Devers hit his 29th home run against the Yankees, a two-run drive in the seventh off Brent Headrick. Marcelo Mayer, a 22-year-old who debuted on May 24, hit his first big league homer, a 410-foot solo drive to right-center in the fifth against Will Warren (4-3). In his first time on the Yankee Stadium mound since the final out of the Los Angeles Dodgers' World Series win last year, Buehler (4-4) gave up seven runs — five earned — and seven hits in two innings while throwing 67 pitches. Devin Williams got three outs for his seventh save in eight chances. Chisholm put the Yankees ahead 3-0, reaching for a curveball below the strike zone and driving the ball into the netting above Monument Park. Batters are hitting .326 against Boston in the first inning this season. New York has scored 20 runs in the first, tied for the major league high. ___

Cal Raleigh joins 20 HR club with 3-run blast
The post Cal Raleigh joins 20 HR club with 3-run blast appeared first on ClutchPoints. The Seattle Mariners got a bargain when they signed Cal Raleigh to a six-year, $105 million extension ahead of the 2025 season. The Platinum Glove catcher has been on an absolute tear this year and on Friday, he added to his impressive stats. Advertisement Raleigh wasted no time, crushing the first pitch he saw in his first at-bat for a three-run home run and becoming the second player to reach 20 homers on the season, per MLB on X. He then went deep again in the eighth inning, launching a 94 mph four-seamer from Cole Sands into the right field stands for his 21st home run of the year. The long ball gave the Mariners a 6-3 lead. Mariners catcher Cal Raleigh hits Nos. 20 and 21 Joe Nicholson-Imagn Images The two homer effort would have given Raleigh the MLB lead but Shohei Ohtani also had a big game, hitting two of his own in the Dodgers' World Series rematch with the Yankees. Advertisement Raleigh has developed into the best catcher in baseball this season. Although he broke out back in 2023 and had a remarkable season last year, Raleigh is putting it all together in 2025. He's now up to 21 home runs and 42 RBI, giving the Mariners an unfair advantage with massive offensive production from the catcher position. Seattle has been solid this season, entering play on Friday 30-25 with a half-game lead over the second-place Houston Astros in the AL West. But the Mariners have lost four of their last five games. And despite Raleigh's massive effort, the team blew the lead he helped build, allowing the Minnesota Twins to take the game into extra innings and then giving up six runs in the top of the 10th. The Mariners have improved offensively this season but their elite starting rotation has been banged up. While Logan Gilbert is close to a return and Bryce Miller isn't too far behind, Seattle is struggling to hang onto its division lead. If the rotation can get healthy, Seattle could decide to take advantage of Raleigh's special season by adding at the trade deadline. Ken Rosenthal noted the Mariners might pursue a first baseman and a right fielder, as they're getting poor production from both positions. If they do go that route, the team can afford to upgrade given its excellent farm system
