Ben Rice was cooking up something special on Saturday afternoon.
Rice crushed three homers against the rival Red Sox as part of a huge game at the plate.
He became the first-ever Yankees rookie to accomplish the feat in the Bronx Bombers’ 14-4 rout of Boston.
Already with two homers going into the bottom of the seventh, Rice stepped in against Boston reliever Chase Anderson and demolished a 1-0 offering 406 feet into right-center field at 110 mph off the bat.
After he rounded the bases and got congratulations from his Yankees teammates, he came back out of the home dugout and gave a curtain call.
