How Yankees’ top pick Anthony Volpe fared in pro debut

First-round pick Anthony Volpe made his pro debut with Pulaski in the Rookie League on Tuesday.

The 18-year-old shortstop had a single, two walks and made a fielding error against Princeton.

He was selected 30th overall earlier this month in the amateur draft out of Delbarton School in Morristown, N.J.

The Yankees recalled Stephen Tarpley on Tuesday after sending Jonathan Holder down to Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre following his ugly outing Monday. The left-handed Tarpley was stretched out with SWB and could fill multiple roles with the Yankees. He tossed a scoreless seventh inning in the Yankees’ 4-3 win over the Blue Jays on Tuesday night at the Stadium.
