Nick Yorke went 1-for-4 with a home run and three RBI in the Pirates' 9-4 victory over the Yankees.

Fantasy Impact

His performance was highlighted by a significant home run that helped extend the Pirates' lead, contributing heavily to the team's win. Despite a season batting average of .229 through 10 games, this game could be a sign of Yorke finding his rhythm at the plate. His power potential is evident with two homers early in his season, but his high strikeout rate and low walk rate suggest there's still much room for improvement in his approach at the plate. Fantasy managers should monitor Yorke's performance closely, as increased consistency could make him a valuable asset, especially in deeper leagues.
