Rizzo delivers again for new team, Yankees rout Orioles 10-3

Recently acquired Anthony Rizzo homered again,  DJ LeMahieu drove in four runs and the New York Yankees cruised to a 10-3 win over the Baltimore Orioles

AUGUST 5, 2021 • ASSOCIATED PRESS

Three hits, four RBI in win LeMahieu went 3-for-5 with a double, four RBI and a run scored in Wednesday's 10-3 win over Baltimore.

Impact The 33-year-old played a clutch role for the Yankees in this contest. He tied the game with an RBI single in the fifth inning, then sparked a five-run rally for the lead in the seventh with another RBI single. LeMahieu completed his three-hit effort with a two-run double in the eighth, giving him a season-high four RBI in the game. The infielder has gone 5-for-9 with three doubles in the last two games, making it the first time since June 26-27 he's posted consecutive multi-hit efforts. He's slashing .268/.345/.365 with seven home runs, 44 RBI, 51 runs scored and four stolen bases through 455 plate appearances overall.

Expected back Monday LeMahieu (triceps) remains out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Marlins, but manager Aaron Boone said he expects the 33-year-old to rejoin the starting nine Monday versu...

Impact A triceps strain will relegate LeMahieu to the bench for the third consecutive game, but the Yankees are viewing the injury as a day-to-day concern and don't believe he'll require a trip to the injured list. The club's stance could change if LeMahieu isn't feeling quite right when he's re-evaluated Monday, but at this point, all indications are that he's progressing well in his recovery. Anthony Rizzo will spell LeMahieu as the Yankees' leadoff man Sunday, while Rougned Odor fills in for LeMahieu at second base.

Dealing with triceps strain Manager Aaron Boone said LeMahieu has a strained triceps, though the infielder isn't expected to require a trip to the injured list, Max Goodman of SI.com reports.

Impact The skipper called the news "encouraging," as LeMahieu may remain out of the lineup Sunday for the third straight contest, but he's expected to be available off the bench. The 33-year-old didn't appear as a reserve Saturday, though he hit a single as a pinch hitter Friday.

Not starting Saturday LeMahieu (triceps) is not in the lineup for Saturday's game against the Marlins.

Impact The infielder is omitted from the lineup for a second straight day as he deals with a minor triceps issue, although he did enter Friday's contest as a pinch hitter. LeMahieu figures to be available off the bench Saturday as well, but it's unclear when he'll be back in the lineup. Rougned Odor is starting at second base and batting sixth.

Raps single as pinch hitter LeMahieu (triceps) singled in his only at-bat during Friday's 3-1 win over Miami.

Impact The infielder was kept out of the starting nine due to the triceps issue, but manager Aaron Boone called on him to enter the game defensively after Gleyber Torres was ejected in the seventh inning. LeMahieu played the remainder of the contest and contributed an infield single in the ninth inning. Given his ability to finish off the game, it's unlikely that LeMahieu will miss much more time.

Impact The exact nature of the injury is unclear, but it doesn't appear to be more than a day-to-day problem. The recently acquired Anthony Rizzo will start at first base, with Rougned Odor at second.
