The New York Yankees took on the Detroit Tigers on Tuesday afternoon, falling 6-5. Featuring the majority of their starters, the offense was powered by several home runs — Jay Bruce and Gary Sanchez, who have been enjoying a phenomenal spring so far.
However, the pitching faltered after Deivi Garcia struck out five batters and allowed to hit over 3.0 innings.
Good news and bad news for the New York Yankees:
The good news, young starter Garcia, looked phenomenal in his second appearance of spring training. As he competes for the fifth spot in the starting rotation, his latest bid certainly impressed the coaching staff.
