This win keeps the Yankees 2.5 games behind the Toronto Blue Jays in the American League East standings as of September 3, 2025.

The grand slam, deposited in the Crawford Boxes in left field, brought his season total to three and contributed to the Yankees’ eight grand slams overall this season. Grisham has reached base in 19 of his last 39 plate appearances over the past nine games, demonstrating a notable offensive contribution.
Chisholm Jr. on the Verge of 30/30 Club
Jazz Chisholm Jr. drove in three runs with two home runs, bringing his season total to 28. He also stole his 26th base of the season, inching closer to becoming only the third player in Yankees history to achieve a 30-home run and 30-stolen base season – a “30/30” season.If Chisholm reaches the milestone, he will join Bobby Bonds (1975) and Alfonso Soriano (2002, 2003) as the only Yankees to accomplish this feat.
