Paul Goldschmidt has done a lot in what’s been a 15-year career in the majors, but Sunday’s pinch-running appearance was a first for him — and he made it worthwhile. Goldschmidt, sitting for a second straight game as Aaron Boone tries to find playing time for the team’s left-handed hitters versus righty starters, replaced Giancarlo Stanton following Stanton’s single in the bottom of the eighth of a 4-2 win over Baltimore.

All game long, the Yankees waited for a big hit as they tried to get by the Orioles. They had a golden chance in the sixth, another good one in the seventh and then — finally, in the eighth — Jazz Chisholm Jr. delivered. Chisholm, filling in for Anthony Volpe at shortstop, came through with a go-ahead, two-run double with one out in the bottom of the eighth, as the Yankees won their second straight over the Orioles, 4-2, in The Bronx.

The Yankees rotation took a hit Sunday, as they put Ryan Yarbrough on the 15-day IL with a right oblique strain. Yarbrough provided unexpected stabilization to the rotation in the wake of injuries to Gerrit Cole and Luis Gil, as well as Marcus Stroman. Stroman has been on a rehab assignment after being sidelined with left knee inflammation. JT Brubaker was built up as a starter after recovering from 2023 Tommy John surgery and then fractured ribs suffered during spring training.

There are former Yankee catchers thriving in a handful of spots around the league, from Luis Torrens with the Mets to Carlos Narváez in Boston. Agustín Ramírez has shown promise with the Marlins and veteran Jose Trevino is having a resurgent year with the Reds. All of those backstops have been dealt in the past year or so by the Yankees, who are now using J.C. Escarra as Austin Wells’ primary backup, with Ben Rice filling in as well now that Giancarlo Stanton is back in the DH spot.

Anthony Volpe struck out to lead off the bottom of the second inning Saturday, extending his hitless streak to 25 at-bats. But when it looked like it might be another tough afternoon for the shortstop, he hit into some good luck, breaking the skid with a slow roller down the third base line an inning later for his first of three hits in the Yankees’ 9-0 win over Baltimore.
