## Resource

Ben Rice is turning heads in the Bronx this season, leading the Yankees with a monster performance at first base and fiery leadership in the dugout. Slugging at .641 and hitting .304 with 18 homers, he’s arguably the team’s most vital player with Aaron Judge sidelined by a rib fracture. After a home run, Rice rallied his teammates with an electrifying call to bring more energy — a moment manager Aaron Boone praised. With the Yankees tied for first in the AL East at 40-26, Rice’s blend of elite stats and vocal leadership is filling the void left by Judge and energizing the team as they chase a championship.
