Luis Severino's 2016 debut didn't go as planned as the Yankees were shut out by Jordan Zimmermann and the Tigers.
In their first road game of the season, the Yankees sent Luis Severino to the mound. Despite showing some flashes of brilliance, Severino struggled a bit and gave up ten hits to the Tigers. Despite that, he managed to restrict them to just three runs. Considering that the Yankees' offense scored 24 runs in the last two games, it seemed like three runs would be a score the Yankees could beat. They could not.
