Tough little stretch here for Yankees baseball. Not only have they suffered both a frustrating close loss and a lopsided loss, they’ve seen Aaron Judge felled by a mysterious bout of soreness and Gio Urshela sidelined after feeling some side effects from a COVID vaccine dose. As it goes with baseball, the games won’t stop, so they’ll have every chance to find some positive momentum.
For today’s game, Domingo Germán will take the mound looking to put together a more consistent start than his first outing. He’ll face Chris Archer, with the veteran right-hander back with the Rays after a three-season sojourn in Pittsburgh.
