The New York Yankees are attempting to…we know, crazy…actually sweep the Seattle Mariners on the road Thursday afternoon after winning a game started by Nick Nelson, named an emergency starter in Domingo German’s place after a root canal.
Normal stuff. Chad Green closed instead of Aroldis Chapman. German pitched several innings in the middle of the game anyway.
