Yankees' Ben Rice: Swats 13th homer
Rice went 2-for-4 with a two-run home run in a loss to the Orioles on Monday.

Yankees' Ben Rice: Remains out of lineup Thursday
Rice (hand) is not in the lineup for Thursday's contest against the Rangers.
The Yankees are facing a lefty in MacKenzie Gore, so it makes sense to give the left-handed-swinging Rice another day as he tries to overcome a left hand contusion. He'll aim to return to action Friday in Milwaukee. Paul Goldschmidt is getting another start at first base and will bat leadoff.

Yankees' Ben Rice: Idle for third straight game
Rice (hand) is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Rangers.
Rice will be on the bench for the third game in a row after suffering a left hand contusion while attempting to a field a low pickoff throw during Sunday's 11-3 win over the Orioles. Per MLB.com, Rice had been slated to attempt to hit Tuesday as a test for his injured hand, but the Yankees haven't revealed how he fared during that workout. At this stage, Rice is seemingly being treated as day-to-day, with manager Aaron Boone telling Bryan Hoch of MLB.com that "it doesn't look like an IL" situation for the 27-year-old first baseman.
