The Yankees got smoked out on Wednesday. But Carlos Rodón did not!
The Bombers’ big-money southpaw — who has yet to pitch this season — had a successful live bullpen outing as he continues his rehab after a back issue.
With owner Hal Steinbrenner, general manager Brian Cashman and more looking on from the first-base dugout, Rodón threw 20 pitches. He mixed in his off-speeds, ranging from 92 to 94 mph on his fastball. Teammates Oswaldo Cabrera and Jake Bauers stood in against Rodón, swinging and missing a few times.
