'Rival' Boston bombing

Rice started the game against the Boston Red Sox in the 2024 Major League Baseball at Yankee Stadium in the Bronx, New York on the 7th (Korea time) and scored three hits (three home runs) in five at-bats (seven RBIs and three runs).

All of Rice's three hits were homers. After hitting a leadoff home run in the bottom of the first inning, he hit a three-run homer with two outs and runners on the first and second bases in the bottom of the fifth inning, and hit a three-run homer in consecutive at-bats with one out and runners on the first and second bases in the bottom of the seventh inning.

It is the first time that a rookie player from the Yankees has hit three home runs in a game. Aaron Judge, the best home run hitter in the field, has never hit three home runs in a single game in the rookie season.

In particular, the game was more impactful because it was against the Yankees' longtime rival Boston.

Rice, the Yankees" No. 12 overall pick in the 2021 rookie draft, received a "call-up" last month after a minor career.

Immediately after the call-up, he took over the starting position with a consistent batting average in the mid-to-late .200 range. With a more accurate batting performance than a long hit, he had only one homer in 16 games before this game. 토토사이트넷

However, he hit three home runs in one game and played a "life game."

Thanks to Rice's performance with seven RBIs alone, the Yankees won a landslide 14-4 victory. Starter Gerrit Cole was shaken to four runs in four ⅓ innings, but overcame it thanks to batters.

Judge, who ranks first in home runs in the entire Major League with 32 homers this season, scored two hits and two runs from five times at bat on the day
