ARLINGTON -- One day after experiencing fatigue in his pitching arm that limited him to 75 pitches against the Rangers, Yankees righty Ivan Nova said that his fears were calmed by talking to a few pitchers who could relate to what he is going through.
Nova called upon a good friend, Francisco Liriano of the Pirates, as well as his teammates Dellin Betances and Nick Goody. They all assured Nova that the fatigue was part of the process in recovering from Tommy John surgery, quieting any alarms in the right-hander's mind.
