Chisholm Admits to Season-Long Slump After Clutch Yankees Homer
The Yankees 2B is batting .224 overall and just .177 in June, but delivered a go-ahead HR in Game 2 vs the Dodgers.
Jazz Chisholm Jr. is batting .224 with 14 home runs over 94 games in 2026, which would be his lowest full-season average in the majors. He hit just .177 in June across 79 at-bats, and that slump has carried into July. Despite the struggles, Chisholm hit a go-ahead home run in the eighth inning Sunday to lift the Yankees over the Dodgers in Game 2. Manager Aaron Boone has expressed confidence in Chisholm turning things around.
