New York Yankees Recap: Ivan Nova’s Solid Outing Helps Yanks Avoid Sweep Against Phillies

After getting bad outings from Michael Pineda and C.C. Sabathia in the first two games of their series against the Phillies, the New York Yankees and their fans were not sure what to expect from Ivan Nova today. Nova was making his first start since April 2014 after undergoing Tommy John surgery. Plus, he was going up against Cole Hamels. However, Nova was solid in his return and the Yanks had two big innings against Hamels, which proved the difference as New York avoided the sweep in a 10-2 win.
