Earns win Saturday Chapman (1-1) pitched a clean ninth inning Saturday while getting all three outs on just 14 pitches as he earned his first victory of the season.
Impact Chapman was called upon to enter the game in the top of the ninth to preserve a 1-1 tie after Adam Ottavino surrendered a game-tying solo home run to Wilson Ramos the prior inning. After allowing a combined three runs in his first two outings, Chapman pitched a quick 1-2-3 inning which led to the Yankees walking off in the bottom half of the frame. Despite his early struggles, Chapman should have a firm grasp on the closer's role despite Zack Britton (hamstring) being close to a return.

Charged with loss Friday Chapman (0-1) allowed two runs on one hit and one walk while failing to record an out as he was charged with the loss in Game 2 of Friday's doubleheader against the Mets.
Impact Chapman took the mound for the first time since Aug. 17, but he allowed a walkoff home run, resulting in a loss and blown save. The southpaw missed the start of the season after testing positive for COVID-19, but he should still have a relatively firm hold on the closer's role for the Yankees.

Fans two in season debut Chapman tossed one inning in Monday's win over the Red Sox, allowing one run on two hits while striking out two in a non-save situation.
Impact Chapman showed a bit of rust in his first outing of the season -- he gave up a triple and a double to yield one run -- but his fastball was as overpowering as ever, hitting 101 mph (per Bryan Hoch of MLB.com) on the veteran's final pitch. Chapman had no issue keeping the ball in the zone, throwing 14 of 20 pitches for strikes and punching out his final two batters. He won't pitch in back-to-back games this week, Hoch notes separately, but Chapman is solidly in control of New York's closer role, so his next outing could very well be in a save situation.
