Luis Severino started the deciding game of the Yankees sweep in the ALDS, tossing four innings of shutout ball before handing it over to a series of relievers to close the game out. Severino got into a couple of jams, including a bases-loaded, no outs situation in the second inning; those situations could have shifted momentum heavily if he hadn’t gotten out unharmed. He was the definition of “bend but don’t break,” missing with location in several spots but buckling down to get big outs and put up some zeros on the board.
The Yankees will need a big contribution from Luis Severino
