NEW YORK (CBSNewYork/AP) — Luis Gil pitched six scoreless innings in his major league debut, Giancarlo Stanton homered and drove in four runs, and the New York Yankees routed the Baltimore Orioles 13-1 on Tuesday night.
Gil (1-0) started in place of All-Star ace Gerrit Cole, who was put on the COVID-19 injured list before the game after testing positive for the virus Monday.
The 23-year-old right-hander did a good impression of the Yankees ace, allowing just four singles. He struck out six and walked only one.
