## Resource

Ben Rice is on fire for the Yankees, crushing two homers in a 12-4 win over the Rays and now leading the AL with 28 home runs—two more than he hit all last year. With Aaron Judge sidelined, Rice’s power surge is a game-changer, and he’s set to debut in the Home Run Derby on July 13th, facing off against fellow slugger Junior Caminero, who narrowly trails him in homers. Caminero’s Derby experience could give him an edge, but Rice is ready to prove his breakout season isn’t a fluke—and he’s bringing the heat to the All-Star break.
