The New York Yankees after a win last night will hope to win two from the New York Mets today, in a doubleheader at Yankee Stadium. Last night, the Yankees broke a seven-game losing streak, powered by a homer from Luke Voit and the perfect pitching performance of J.A. Happ, who pitched 7.1 scoreless innings for the Yankees 2-1 win. With that momentum, the Yankees now hope to sweep a doubleheader in the Bronx.
With Gerrit Cole, Masahiro Tanaka, Jordan Montgomery, and J.A. Happ unavailable due to recent pitching, and the injury to James Paxton, the Yankees have no one in the regular rotation to start either of today’s games.
