MLB.com | Casey Drottar : Though the Yankees suffered a second straight walk-off loss and a series sweep on Sunday, at least one Yankee enjoyed a nice moment. After going hitless with four strikeouts in his first two games, Spencer Jones got his first major league hit in the second inning against Logan Henderson , a 106.4 mph single up the middle that scored JosĂ© Caballero . Fittingly for Motherâs Day, his mom (along with the rest of his family) was there to cheer him on. Hard to top that in terms of presents, I imagine. Congratulations, Spencer, and I hope the hits keep coming for you.
MLB.com | Casey Drottar : Another Yankee who achieved an important milestone on Sunday was Carlos RodĂłn , who made his first start of 2026 after missing the first month of the season while recovering from offseason surgery to remove a bone spur from his left elbow. While his overall line was forgettable â 3 earned runs, 5 strikeouts and 5 walks over 4.1 innings â Drottar points to one undeniably positive sign; RodĂłn averaged 95.7 mph on his heater during the start, 1.6 mph faster than his 2025 average. If nothing else, this suggests that his elbow is indeed in better shape. If he can improve his control, RodĂłn might be able to recapture his excellent 2025 form, or maybe even surpass it.
