Rice went 1-for-5 with a three-run home run in the first game of Wednesday's doubleheader split with the Pirates.
The 27-year-old slugger took Carmen Mlodzinski deep in the seventh inning to account for all of the Yankees' offense in a 5-3 loss. After going 0-for-4 in the nightcap, Rice sports a .277/.366/.590 slash line through 97 games on the season with 30 homers -- fourth in the majors behind Yordan Alvarez (34), Kyle Schwarber (33) and Hunter Goodman (31).
