Here\u2019s what people were saying about Volpe on social media:<\/p>\n

@YankeeSource:<\/a> \u201cGood piece of hitting from Volpe to drive in Lombard to follow.\u201d<\/p>\n

@MattFeinbergEsq:<\/a> \u201cLove to see him lining it the other way. That needs to be his sweet spot.\u201d<\/p>\n

@lakeeffectkvd:<\/a> \u201cThere he goes. Good job.\u201d<\/p>\n

@cai_rogers7:<\/a> \u201cAnthony Volpe rips an opposite field RBI double!! Volpe then stole third base on the next pitch, his 2nd SB of the season\u201d<\/p>\n

@TurtleneckAV11:<\/a> \u201cThat\u2019s a promising peace of hitting, full count, hits it hard the other way to score the run.\u201d<\/p>\n

@OmariiBrown:<\/a> \u201cHe\u2019s going to be much better at 2B. Get your confidence back young man\u201d<\/p>\n

@NYY_Prospects:<\/a> \u201cSWB lost 8-3. 2 RBI for Cabrera and Anthony Volpe added an RBI double. Not great on the pitching side, but Rafael Montero<\/a> and Dylan Coleman<\/a> combined for 3.1 innings of perfect relief.\u201d<\/p>\n

Volpe has yet to make his season debut for the Yankees.<\/p>\n

He came into the night batting<\/a> .233 with 14 hits, one home run, seven RBI\u2019s, ten runs and three stolen bases in 16 minor league games this year.<\/p>\n

The Yankees wrote (via X) on May 3<\/a>: \u201cFollowing today\u2019s game, the Yankees returned INF Anthony Volpe from his rehab assignment, reinstated him from the 10-day injured list and optioned him to Triple-A Scranton\/Wilkes-Barre.\u201d<\/p>\n

Yankees fans will be keeping an eye on how Volpe does in the minors, as he has been their shortstop from 2023-25.<\/p>\n

He won a Gold Glove Award in 2023 (and helped them reach the World Series in 2024).<\/p>\n
