The New York Yankees faced the Toronto Blue Jays on Easter Sunday at Yankee Stadium in the three-game set rubber game. The Jays won the first game, the Yankees took the second game, and the Jays took the rubber game 3-1. The Yankee record after just three games is 1-2. At his first start of the season, Domingo German completely bombed, and the Yankee hitting just wasn’t there. Here are three major takeaways from the game.
Micheal King sparkled in relief
The big story in the game is not German’s failure; it is the fact that Michael King relieved German in the fourth inning and closed out the game, saving the Yankee bullpen for the Baltimore series.
