Yankees Buried By Kansas City, 17-1
Edgardo Medina impressed in the 17-1 Kansas City win over New York. Medina, who finished 5th in the AL in hits with 175 last year, hit 2 home runs. He scored 3 runs and drove in 6. Kansas City reliever Carlos Long picked up the win, upping his record to 1-0. António Hernández was saddled with the loss. The Yankees fall to 6-11 and continue their lackluster start to the 2025 season.

With Kansas City leading 3-1 in the top of the fifth, Medina hit a slider from António Hernández for a grand slam home run. It was his 5th home run of the season and put the Royals ahead, 7-1.

Losing skipper Don Wakamatsu called the defeat "kind of a clunker all around."
