You can’t win ‘em all, and it felt apparent relatively early that this might be one of those games that the Yankees would add to the loss column when all was said and done. Philadelphia consistently punished mistakes and New York failed to do likewise in a 4-1 loss that was a straightforward shutout until the game’s final inning.
The action started quickly. After Trea Turner popped Domingo Germán’s first pitch a mile high behind home plate, Kyle Schwarber decided that he too would swing at the first offering he saw: 93 mph out of Germán’s hand and 104 mph off the bat into the left-field seats for a 1-0 Philly lead.
