Goes deep against Boston
Rice went 2-for-3 with a solo home run during Friday's 5-3 loss to the Red Sox.
Analyse
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.

Drives in four runs Sunday
Rice went 2-for-5 with a double, a triple, four RBI and two runs scored in Sunday's win over the Athletics.
Analyse
Rice extended his hitting streak to five games in style, lacing a two-RBI double before driving in two more runs with a triple as part of the Yankees' 13-run third inning. The first baseman will close out May slashing .286/.346/.602 with 15 extra-base hits (including seven homers), 21 RBI, 18 runs and a stolen base across 24 games during the month. His 1.055 OPS across 54 games this season leads all qualified MLB hitters.
