Spencer Jones of the New York Yankees celebrates with teammates after hitting a two-run home run for his first Major League home run during the second inning against the Cleveland Guardians at Progressive Field on June 9, 2026 in Cleveland, Ohio. After Jazz Chisholm Jr. drew a leadoff walk, Jones turned around an 87-mph cutter from starter Slade Cecconi.
The homer continued a good streak for Jones since he was recalled from Triple-A to play right field while Aaron Judge and Jasson Dominguez are both on the injured list. He had his first career three-hit game Friday and a ninth-inning single off the American League’s best reliever on Monday.
