Rice drives in 7, Yanks score 12 — even with depleted lineup
ST. LOUIS — When a team goes through rough patches over a long season, it can often be useful to get back to basics and play the style of baseball that helped define the team at its essence.
They’re known as the Bronx Bombers for a reason, after all.
The Yankees muscled up for three homers, Trent Grisham scored a career-high four runs, and Ben Rice matched a career high with seven RBIs in a 12-8 win on Saturday night, securing a Players’ Weekend series victory at Busch Stadium.
"On a night like tonight, and any night when we’ve got guys who are down that we normally have in a lineup, it just speaks to how deep we are,” Rice said.
Ben Rice’s 7-RBI night powers Yankees offense to series win over Cardinals
ST. LOUIS — José Caballero knew on contact that Ben Rice’s monster swing would result in a ball in the seats.
With one out, runners on the corners and the New York Yankees trailing by two in the top of the fourth, St. Louis Cardinals starting pitcher Sonny Gray served up a sinker that didn’t sink, and Rice didn’t miss it. Caballero, who was standing on third base, raised a fist and shook it three times before beginning his jog home. Rice pummeled Gray’s 2-2 pitch 428 feet for a three-run homer to put the Yankees up 6-5.

Yankees’ Ben Rice joins Lou Gehrig in exclusive New York franchise history for RBI record originally appeared on The Sporting News
Believe it or not, this was not the first seven-RBI game of Ben Rice's New York Yankees career.
And because that's true, it means he joins one of the most exclusive, impressive lists that a Yankee can be on.
Prior to Saturday night, there was only one first baseman who had multiple seven-RBI games for the Yankees, and his name was Lou Gehrig. He had nine, for the record.
