🧠 Takeaways

The Offense

The Yankees offense managed just two base runners today and sent 28 men to the plate. The minimum in a game is 27.

Starting Pitching Analysis

Will Warren pitched five innings, giving up no runs. He walked the tightrope, but was able to pitch around it.

Bullpen Usage

Comilo Doval and Luke Weaver both did their jobs in the sixth and seventh innings, and looked good (Volpe did help Doval with a slick double play). Williams, however did not. Williams allowed a double (that should have been caught) and back-to-back walks to load the bases with one out. He then got into a 10-pitch battle with Rowdy Tellez, and Tellez flicked an two-RBI single into shallow center to put the Rangers in front.
