The Yankees took home another W tonight on the heels of a strong season debut from Nestor Cortes and some more big swings (and good takes) from Gleyber Torres. On a smooth-sailing night, they won, 8-1, to keep the defending National League champions winless on the young season.
The Bombers got the scoring started in the bottom of the first. DJ LeMahieu lined a rocket, 105.7 mph off the bat to center, that looked like a single. The typically sure-handed Brandon Marsh misplayed it though, and LeMahieu ended up at third. A pair of walks, an RBI groundout, and a Torres infield single later, and the Yankees were up 2-0.
