Yankee shortstop 2015 professional#
He signed on June 10, receiving a $2.7 million signing bonus, and made his professional debut with the Pulaski Yankees of the Rookie Advanced Appalachian League. The New York Yankees selected Volpe in the first round, with the 30th overall selection, of the 2019 Major League Baseball draft. Volpe committed to play college baseball at Vanderbilt University. He was named the 2019 New Jersey High School Player of the Year by Perfect Game. 488 with seven home runs, 34 RBIs, and 17 stolen bases. The top two spots belong to 2017 Judge at 496 feet and 495 feet, but another from Sanchez when he was a Yankee is third at 481 feet from the 2019 season.Volpe attended Delbarton School in Morristown, New Jersey, where he played for the school's baseball team and was a teammate of Jack Leiter. Per Statcast's measurements since 2015, that's the longest homer from an opponent at Yankee Stadium and the fourth-longest overall.
That ball sailed 473 feet past the left field bleachers in Sanchez's first return to Yankee Stadium as a visitor. Gary Sanchez, a homegrown Yankees player who came to the Twins in the Donaldson trade, delivered a two-run homer in the fifth to make it 2-2.
The Twins did at one point tie the game, from the most fitting source, at that. But honestly, when you leave some pitches where you don't want to, and good hitters hit them on the barrel in this ballpark, they're generally going to go," Baldelli said. "We pitched them reasonably tough, and it was fine. But he wasn't reading too much into the multiple Yankees homers, especially since Yankee Stadium has a tendency to allow big hits. Twins manager Rocco Baldelli said Judge's season is extraordinary, especially considering how offense as a whole has been down this year across the league. Kiner-Falefa, whose home run was only his second of the season, was a member of the team for little over a day in March when he was acquired from Texas and then traded to the Yankees in the deal that sent Donaldson to New York. And Isiah Kiner-Falefa homered in the seventh with Pagan on the mound. Ahead of Judge's sixth-inning homer, Gleyber Torres clipped a leadoff single off reliever Trevor Megill. Marwin Gonzalez hit a solo home run off Archer in the third. Josh Donaldson brought Judge home on a base hit after that first-inning double.
Judge did have some help Monday, though, mostly from ex-Twins. The 68-65 Twins fell one game behind Cleveland in the Central Division and are one game up on the third-place White Sox. He's on pace for 65, which would break the AL home run record of fellow Yankees outfielder Roger Maris, who smashed 61 in 1961.Īnd while the 81-54 Yankees have flagged a bit recently, especially offensively, Judge has carried them through the struggles and kept the team atop the East Division. 302 batting average, he's crushed 54 home runs - three in the past three days - and has 117 RBI. The 30-year-old center fielder is a favorite for the American League MVP this season as the most prolific hitter in the game.
