Today has been a long day of baseball. It began with a morning trade between the Yankees and Twins, and rolled along with rumors still linking New York to Sonny Gray. The afternoon stretched on as the Rays and Yankees played a slow, pitching change/mound conference filled game. By the end, the Yankees’ winning streak was snapped at six, as Jordan Montgomery was chased early and the offense failed to capitalize on a number of chances.
Montgomery was coming off one of his best starts of the year against Cincinnati, but he quickly found himself in trouble.
