CINCINNATI — Jazz Chisholm Jr. was seeing red Tuesday night, which Jose Trevino may have had something to do with.
By Wednesday, the only red in Chisholm’s sight was the color of the right-field seats where his moonshot of a two-run homer was landing.
And of course, his trip around the bases brought him right past Trevino, where the Yankees third baseman got the last laugh with his former teammate.
The night after getting thrown out in the ninth inning, Chisholm made his mark with a crucial two-run home run, leading to a 7-1 victory over the Reds. This win at Great American Ballpark helped them dodge a series sweep.
Max Fried delivered another outstanding performance, pitching seven innings and allowing just one unearned run. His efforts helped the Yankees (46-34) secure their fourth win in the last 13 games and kept them a game ahead of the Rays at the top of the AL East.
Chisholm was not available for the final two and a half innings of Tuesday’s 11-inning loss after getting ejected in the ninth.

Chisholm had been frustrated by a strike call in the top of the ninth and was reportedly self-talking at third base during grounders. When he looked up, he noticed home plate umpire Mark Wegner watching him.
Chisholm asked Wegner why he was looking at him, which was apparently enough to get him tossed.

Before Wednesday’s game, manager Aaron Boone indicated — perhaps slightly tongue-in-cheek — that Trevino “contributed to the ejection” by getting Wegner to look at Chisholm.
Video later surfaced via the YES Network that showed Trevino, who had come out on deck, appearing to tip off Wegner in Chisholm’s direction.
