David Price has pitched at Yankee Stadium five times as a member of the Boston Red Sox. In those starts, he has surrendered 10 home runs and posted a 10.44 ERA. The left-hander’s outing on Sunday was his worst Bronx appearance yet, giving up a career-high five home runs in 3 1/3 innings.
New York claimed the series finale with a 11-1 win over the Sox. Price, who joked last week he wouldn’t be able to take the mound Sunday because of his Fortnite obsession, said the game wouldn’t define his season.
“I’ve never given up five home runs in any start in my career,” the 32-year-old said, per ESPN.
