After an unceremonious end to their 10-game homestand, as the Yankees dropped their first series of the season and finished the trip 5-5, the club will be heading out on a seven-game road trip. Their first stop will be in Minneapolis for a three-game set, and their first foe on the mound will be a familiar one.
Sonny Gray, whom the Yankees dealt just a year and a half after acquiring him in a 2017 blockbuster, will toe the slab for the Twins. The right-hander has posted a 3.28 ERA in 508.1 innings since his bitter public fallout with the Yankees, and in that time he’s faced the Bombers just once, holding them to two runs (one earned) across six innings last September in the Bronx.
