Overview

  • Since rejoining the lineup on June 3, Chisholm is batting .318 with six home runs, 18 RBIs and four stolen bases.
  • On June 29, he delivered a go-ahead second-inning homer, cleared the bases with a changeup triple and made three highlight-reel stops at third base.
  • The controlled “70% effort” plan, advised by assistant hitting coach Pat Roessler, has emphasized swing management and patience to sustain his power.
  • He briefly left the field with wrist pain after a check-swing incident in the sixth inning but returned to finish the game, illustrating his resilience and the Yankees’ cautious medical protocols.
  • Manager Aaron Boone and captain Aaron Judge have praised Chisholm as a “game-changer” whose energy and versatility have stabilized an inconsistent lineup.
