Continuing to establish himself as the potential ace that he has now become, right-hander Luis Severino dominated the Royals in New York Yankees Stadium on May 24, 2017, blanking them through eight on four hits and one walk in a 3-0 victory.
Helping Luis early to his solid outing, Jacoby Ellsbury ran hard into the center field wall retiring Alcides Escobar for the game’s first out, and landing on the Disabled List for an extended stay for his trouble. Didi Gregorius scored the game’s first run with his third-inning homer, and scored run No. three after leading off the home seventh with a grounds rule double.
