JAKE BAUERS NEWS

Goes deep in win Bauers went 1-for-2 with a two-run home run and a walk against Seattle in a 4-2 win Wednesday.

Impact Bauers put the Yankees on the board in the third inning with a two-run shot to right-center field. It was his first homer since June 3, a span of 14 games. Bauers is slashing a mediocre .231/.315/.481 on the campaign but has hit safely in six of his past seven contests, collecting four extra-base hits and five RBI over that span.

Notches three hits in twin bill Bauers went 3-for-7 with two doubles, a walk, a stolen base and two runs across both games of Sunday's doubleheader against the Red Sox.

Impact The Yankees managed just three total runs in the twin bill, with Bauers scoring two of them from the leadoff spot. The veteran collected a pair of doubles in Game 1 and added a single, a walk and a theft in the nightcap. Bauers has hit atop the order in each of his past five games and has collected at least one hit in each of those contests, going 6-for-20 (.300) with three doubles, three runs and three RBI. All five games have been against a right-hander starter, so it remains to be seen if the left-handed Bauers will bat in a different spot against southpaws.

Impact Bauers tagged rookie hurler Michael Grove for a pair of two-run shots early to help New York get off to a fast start. Bauers entered the contest with just one homer over his previous 44 at-bats, and he struggled with a 33.3 percent strikeout rate over the stretch. He's started four of the the Yankees' past five games but could start to see his opportunities decrease with Giancarlo Stanton and Josh Donaldson both returning from lengthy stays on the injured list this weekend.

Delivers three XBH in win Bauers went 3-for-4 with a home run, two doubles, a walk and two RBI in Monday's 10-4 win over the Mariners.

Impact Bauers had fallen out of favor after going 1-for-22 with a 38.5 percent strikeout rate over his prior 10 games heading into Monday, but he may have gotten himself back in manager Aaron Boone's good graces after turning in a season-best performance in the series opener in Seattle. Though Bauers could get a start at the expense of either Isiah Kiner-Falefa or Willie Calhoun the next time the Yankees face a right-hander, none of the three players may have a path to steady playing time a week from now. Both Josh Donaldson (hamstring) and Giancarlo Stanton (hamstring) could return from the 10-day injured list for this weekend's series with the Dodgers to fill the two holes in New York's regular lineup.

Heads to bench versus lefty Bauers is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Athletics, Erik Boland of Newsday reports.

Impact After going 1-for-2 with a two-run home run, a walk and an additional RBI in Tuesday's 10-5 win, the lefty-hitting Bauers will retreat to the bench for the series finale while the Athletics bring southpaw Kyle Muller to the hill. Even with Aaron Judge (hip) returning to action Tuesday, the Yankees could still have a regular role available for Bauers in the corner outfield or at designated hitter against right-handed pitching if he can continue to swing a hot bat. Bauers, Oswaldo Cabrera, Isiah Kiner-Falefa, Willie Calhoun and Aaron Hicks (hip) are all in the mix for two spots in the Yankees' lineup.

Drives in three Bauers went 1-for-2 with a two-run home run and an additional RBI in Tuesday's victory over the Athletics.

Impact Bauers had a productive outing at the plate Thursday, taking part in a five-run third inning by plating Harrison Bader on a sacrifice fly and bringing Bader around once again in the seventh on a two-run homer. Though Bauers was brought up to the big league club in response to Aaron Judge's injury, he remained in the starting lineup as the Yankees' DH despite Judge being reinstated and starting in right. However, Bauers has struggled since joining the starting lineup, going 0-12 outside of a pair of long balls with six strikeouts.

Heads to bench Sunday Bauers is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Rays, Bryan Hoch of MLB.com reports.

Impact The Rays are "starting" a right-hander (Javy Guerra) for the series finale, but he's expected to work only an inning or two before giving way to left-hander Josh Fleming, who will cover the bulk of the innings out of the bullpen. As a result, the lefty-hitting Bauers looks to be out of the lineup mainly for matchup-related reasons, as he had previously started in each of the previous three games when the Yankees opposed right-handed pitchers.

Remains on bench Monday Bauers (knee) is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Guardians.

Impact Bauers received good news over the weekend when an MRI on his right knee came back clean, but he'll still be out of the lineup for a second straight day after suffering the injury in his Yankees debut Saturday. When healthy, the lefty-hitting Bauers could get a look as a strong-side platoon player in left field, a position from which the Yankees have struggled to generate offensive production this season. Bauers had slashed .319/.460/.812 with nine home runs and five stolen bases over 87 plate appearances with Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre prior to being called up last week.
