It was a cold fourth game for the New York Yankees (2-1) as they challenged the Detroit Tigers (2-0) at Comerica Park. Alex Rodriguez had the day off as Mark Teixeira took over the DH spot, and following a blistering start to his season, Starlin Castro was moved into the lineup’s 3-hole. It was also Luis Severino‘s first start of the year, and the Yankees needed a solid performance from the young right-hander.
