Anthony Volpe erupts with daily homers in Triple-A, impresses teammate Jasson Domínguez

Anthony Volpe, recently demoted from the New York Yankees to their Triple-A affiliate in Scranton/Wilkes-Barre, has ignited a power surge by hitting a home run in each of his last five outings, achieving a 12-for-17 line and a 2.527 OPS during that stretch. His teammate Jasson Domínguez, who was called up that Saturday, remarked that Volpe’s performance makes him seem like Barry Bonds, noting the daily homers. Since the demotion, Volpe has been shuffled among shortstop, second base and third base to broaden his defensive options and improve his chances of a recall if injuries arise.

In the most recent game, Volpe contributed a 1-for-3 effort with two walks, though the Triple-A side fell short. Domínguez entered the same game in right field, went 0-for-1, and praised Volpe’s work ethic and daily power display.
