BALTIMORE-- Luke Voit hit two big home runs playing first base for the Yankees during Friday night's comeback win over the Baltimore Orioles, so it was no surprise when he was back in the lineup for Game 1 of Saturday's day-night doubleheader at Oriole Park.
Then again, Neil Walker had his only two-homer game as a Yankee against the Texas Rangers on Aug. 9, then sat the bench the next day.
Why bench Walker the day after his best game of the season?
Boone went into detail explaining his decision-making process for lineups and bullpen moves Saturday before the Yanks forged 10-3 and 5-1 wins to sweep the Orioles.
