Logs three hits in Judge's absence
Jones went 3-for-3 with an RBI double during Friday's 5-3 loss to Boston.
Analyse
Jones was recalled ahead of Friday's game and started in right field due to the absence of Aaron Judge (ribs). Jones reached base safely in all three of his plate appearances, with his double in the fourth inning bringing Jazz Chisholm home. With Judge sidelined, Jones should see regular playing time in the outfield against right-handers until either Giancarlo Stanton (calf) or Jasson Dominguez (shoudler) is back from the injured list.

Officially recalled Friday
The Yankees recalled Jones from Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre on Friday.
Analyse
Jones takes the 26-man roster spot vacated by Aaron Judge (ribs) after he was placed on the 10-day IL in a corresponding move. Jones got his first taste of the big leagues last month but slashed .167/.259/.167 with zero extra-base hits, two RBI, one stolen base and a 3:12 BB:K across 27 trips to the plate before being sent back down. He'll need to cut down on that 44.4 percent strikeout rate in a big way, but Jones should see regular at-bats against right-handed pitching at least until Jasson Dominguez (shoulder) and Giancarlo Stanton (calf) are back from the injured list.
