Overview
- Marcelo Mayer became the youngest Red Sox player since 2018 to record a multi-homer game, driving in two runs and backing a seven-inning quality start from Walker Buehler in a 4-3 win over the Rays on June 11 at Fenway Park.
- The Giants saw their rallying touch stall on June 12 when Randy Rodriguez’s wild ninth inning and a Casey Schmitt error opened the door for Colorado’s 8-7 walk-off victory, snapping San Francisco’s season-best seven-game winning streak.
- Aaron Judge homered for the third straight game and Clarke Schmidt yielded just two hits over six innings as the Yankees cruised to a 6-3 victory against the Royals on June 11.
- Rookie Roman Anthony recorded his first major league hit in his second game, joining Mayer in underscoring the immediate impact of this season’s top prospects.
- The Colorado Rockies dropped to 12-54 and remain on pace to break the modern-era record for losses, extending their struggles through mid-June.
