Winning three-of-four, the New York Yankees took care of business against the Durham Bulls Tampa Bay Rays. Yankees pitchers were pounding the strike zone and the lineup came up with timely knocks. Yes, one would like to sweep a team like the Rays but at the risk of being cliche, like with a doubleheader, it’s tough to sweep a four-game series. Hence, throwing in another cliche, the Yankees did their job, beating a team they should at home.
GAME 1
A pair of rookies helped the pinstripes to a 4-3 victory. Gleyber Torres and Domingo German headlined the grind it out win.
