The lefty powerhouse went 3-for-5 with a double, a deep solo home run and a three-run homer in the Yankees’ dominant 9-1 win Monday afternoon.
In a Yankees win that wasn’t driven just by the bats of Juan Soto and Aaron Judge, Soto still managed to do a good amount of damage to the Rays.
“I don’t know. I was talking about this the other day with someone,” said Rodon, who delivered seven innings of one-run ball. “I’m like ‘What? What do you think it feels like to be Juan Soto? Is it like when you’re in high school and you’re getting .450 or when you’re in college and it’s pretty easy, you’re hitting .350 and a bunch of homers?’ I don’t know. … It’s still a challenge, right? He just makes it look easy. Baseball is ups and downs. He has some downs, but he swings the bat so well.
He stood at home and tried to use some body language to keep it fair as it basically crossed over the top of the foul pole before an overly deliberate trot around the bases. Juan Soto celebrates with New York Yankees third base coach Luis Rojas as he rounds the bases on his solo home run.“The first one was really far. The second one was really hard and low. So, you know, a little treat of both,” Rodon said. “High launch and low launch and just a great great hitter, a great player.”
