The Yankees closed out their series against the Texas Rangers with a tidy 1-0 win Thursday afternoon in the Bronx, securing their third sweep of the season—following previous clean slates against Milwaukee and Kansas City. Behind another dominant outing from Carlos Rodón and a surprise jolt from rookie Jorbit Vivas, New York stayed red-hot, improving to 30-19 and pushing their home record to 18-9. “Rodón Deals” is becoming a once-per-week headline, and we’d like to keep it that way.

On a brisk Tuesday night in the Bronx, rookie right-hander Will Warren turned in the finest outing of his young career, leading the Yankees to a 5–2 victory over the Rangers. The 25-year-old tossed 5.2 shutout innings, striking out a career-high 10 while surrendering just five hits and one walk across 101 pitches. At 25 years and 338 days old, Warren became the youngest Yankee to notch double-digit strikeouts since Luis Severino in 2018.

The Subway Series is back—and this year, it’s electric. The timing couldn’t be better, as both New York powerhouses are rolling.

Both clubs have won six of their last ten, and both are playing with the swagger and confidence of October-bound contenders. This isn’t just a crosstown rivalry—it’s a collision between two of the best teams in baseball, each with something to prove and everything to gain.

Ben Rice launched his first career grand slam, marking the third such milestone for a Yankee this week, following Austin Wells and Jasson Domínguez.
