With torpedo bat in hand, Jazz Chisholm Jr. is among a few big-name New York Yankees off to a red-hot start in 2025.
The 27-year-old is batting .292 with a 1.162 OPS, four homers, eight RBIs, six runs and a stolen base in 27 plate appearances. Chisholm connected on 11 home runs in 46 regular season games after being traded to New York at the deadline last season.
With New York leading the Arizona Diamondbacks 7-2 in the fourth inning on Thursday, Chisholm launched his fourth home run of the season into Yankee Stadium’s right field bleachers.
Shortly after, Major League Baseball’s social media team shared a two-word reaction to the electric moment.
“Jazz swag ” the official MLB X account wrote.
Social media also took notice of the former All-Star’s latest bat flip.
” JAZZ CHISHOLM ELITE BAT FLIP The Yankees’ lineup might be UNSTOPPABLE,” FanDuel wrote.
“Jazz Chisholm Jr. is racking up elite bat flips at a LEGENDARY rate right now,” a fan added.
“These Jazz Chisholm bat flips need to be more disrespectful. … Turn up what he’s doing by 1,000 and get these people mad ” another said.
