Rice is up to 25 home runs and a .925 OPS, which rank fifth and eighth, respectively, in the majors this season.

Yankees' Ben Rice: Launches go-ahead homer
Rotowire
Rice went 2-for-5 with a two-run homer in Sunday's 8-3 win over the Blue Jays.
Rice snapped a 3-3 tie in the top of the ninth inning with his two-run blast off Braydon Fisher, his 19th homer this season, though just his second in his last 13 games. Rice had cooled off a bit at the plate of late, going just 2-for-17 (.118) in his previous four contests. He's still slashing an excellent .293/.387/.611 through 279 plate appearances this year with 47 RBI and 51 runs scored.
Rice went 2-for-3 with a solo home run during Friday's 5-3 loss to the Red Sox.
Rice got the Yankees on the board early with a solo home run off Sonny Gray in the first inning. It was Rice's 18th homer of the season, which is tied for Byron Buxton for third-most in the American League. The Yankees will need all of Rice's power as the team navigates the absence of Aaron Judge, who was placed on the 10-day IL prior to Friday's game due to a stress fracture in his right rib that will sideline him for at least 4-for-6 weeks. Rice has done all he can at the plate, especially over his last nine games, when he has gone 16-for-36 (.444) with 11 RBI and nine extra-base hits.
