At this point in the season, it’s becoming impossible for DJ LeMahieu to ignore the echoes of “MVP” throughout Yankee Stadium whenever he comes to the plate.

“I can try and block it out and focus and try to put together a good at bat,” LeMahieu said when asked his reaction to the chants. “Obviously it’s cool; it’s a good feeling to know that the fans appreciate you.”

LeMahieu has given Yankees fans a lot to appreciate, even more than the two-home run, three-hit day he contributed in the Yankees 9-2, first-game victory of the split doubleheader against the Red Sox on Saturday.

And as the injury-prone Yankees continue to dwindle to the injured list — with the newest addition Edwin Encarnacion after a Josh Smith pitch fractured his wrist in the eighth inning of the opener — LeMahieu’s stellar play is all the more sacred.

After going 3-for-5 with four RBIs and two runs in Game 1, LeMahieu went 1-for-4 in the Yankees’ 6-4 doubleheader nightcap victory with a big double play in the top of the sixth, when he snatched a line drive from Andrew Benintendi and caught J.D. Martinez too far off of first.

“He’s a great player,” Boone said following the first-game win. “He prepares really well. And I’m not surprised that he’s come back in and hit the ground running.”

In the opener, LeMahieu went deep twice against Chris Sale — the first on the Red Sox ace’s fifth pitch of the day in the first inning and then a three-run homer to put the Yankees up 7-1 in the fourth— while adding a single in the third against the left-hander, who was driven from the game during the Yankees’ seven-run fourth.

Saturday’s outing saw LeMahieu’s single-season best 16th and 17th home runs of the season, surpassing the 15 he swatted last year for the Rockies.

“I like to hit homers. It’s fun,” said LeMahieu, who is batting .337 after the doubleheader. “It’s right field, I think.

“I love that right-field wall, for sure.”

With Luke Voit on the IL again, LeMahieu had stepped in as the team’s everyday first-baseman while Encarnacion served as a DH. But with Encarnacion’s fall to the IL, LeMahieu got the start at first in Game 2 even though Boone would likely had stayed away from him following Friday’s return from a groin issue that had sidelined him for the previous four games.

LeMahieu has stepped up for the Yankees in more ways than one amid the plague of injuries that have done its best to spoil this season. Entering this season, he had started 857 games at second base, 24 at third and one at first. This year, he has started 54 at third, 30 at second and 11 at first.

“For me, just going up there, not changing anything and having competitive at-bats, that’s really all I can control,” LeMahieu said.
