White Sox first baseman Miguel Vargas hit his
first career grand slam in the second inning and then left the
game with in the fifth with a left wrist contusion after being
clipped by Aaron Judge.
The Yankees homered for the sixth straight game, with 18 total
in that span.
Will Warren (8-6) pitched five innings for the win, allowing
four runs on five hits. The runs, on Vargas' 14th homer, were
ruled unearned after the White Sox loaded the bases on an error,
walk and a hit batter.
Tyler Alexander (4-12), Chicago's first reliever, was charged
with the loss. He allowed two runs on four hits in 2 1/3 innings
Bellinger hit his 26th homer in the first inning, Chisholm
belted his 26th in the second, and Grisham added his 27th in the
eighth.
Yankees manager Aaron Boone said before the game he expects
Judge to play the outfield again this season, but had no
timetable. Judge remains at designated hitter as he recovers
from a flexor strain in his right elbow.
Key moment
Vargas was hurt while trying to stretch for Curtis Mead’s wide
throw from just behind third base on a chopper by Judge. It
appeared Judge’s left leg struck Vargas’ left (glove) hand as he
ran to first.
Key stat
Yankees shortstop Anthony Volpe had two hits and an RBI after
entering in a 1-for-38 slump over 11 games.
Up next
