Instead of challenging fellow shortstops for an All-Star Game appearance, Anthony Volpe ended his first half in miserable fashion for the Yankees.
BALTIMORE — Instead of challenging fellow shortstops Gunnar Henderson of the Orioles and Bobby Witt Jr. of the Royals for an All-Star Game appearance, Anthony Volpe ended his first half in miserable fashion.
And then Cedric Mullins lofted a fly ball to left that Alex Verdugo misplayed into a game-winning double. Over 34 games prior to Sunday’s loss, when he had a double and scored a run, Volpe had an OPS of .424 — with no homers — in 154 plate appearances.
