The New York Yankees received a gem of an outing from starting pitcher Masahiro Tanaka on Sunday afternoon, as he went eight innings allowing three hits and zero runs.
The Bombers ended a two-game slide against the Toronto Blue Jays to right the ship once more, but they made several moves before the game to supplement injuries woes. Left handed-pitcher Stephen Tarpley was put on the 10-day injured list with an elbow, forcing the Yankees to pull up recent acquisition Joe Mantiply.
Mantiply, 28, earned a 3.72 ERA with 26 strikeouts over 29 innings with Triple-A Louisville.
