After a crushing defeat at the hands of the AL East-leading Orioles in Baltimore last night, the Yankees return home to face the second-place Rays in the Bronx. But before the series could even begin, the Yankees started it off on the wrong foot: Domingo Germán was scratched with discomfort around his armpit. Thus, Jhony Brito will get the call (with Ron Marinaccio headed back to Scranton) against a red-hot Tyler Glasnow.
Glasnow’s last poor start came against the Orioles, a Luis Severino-esque effort in which he yielded six runs in 4.1 innings back on June 20th.
