Yankees struck gold out of nowhere with Ben Rice, Cam Schlittler
New York Post • • sports
Key Points:
- The Yankees dominated their home opener in terms of pitching, plate discipline, and aggressive baserunning but struggled to convert opportunities into runs.
- Will Warren delivered another strong pitching performance, continuing a historic stretch for the Yankees' pitching staff.
- Despite controlling the game, the Yankees led only 5-2 after six innings, largely due to poor hitting with runners in scoring position, going 0-for-11 in those situations.
- Aaron Judge provided the only timely hit early on, a home run following a leadoff walk, while Ben Rice notably struggled, striking out three times including key moments with runners on base.
