On a night they bolstered their bullpen by acquiring Orioles closer Zach Britton for three Minor League prospects, the Yankees got a shutout from Masahiro Tanaka in a 4-0 win over the Rays on Tuesday night.
“It’s satisfying, but as the season continues, we still have a lot more games to play,” Tanaka said through a translator. “I’ll allow myself to celebrate tonight and then back to business tomorrow.”
Tanaka retired the first 12 batters he faced, and he needed just eight pitches to make it through the second and nine in the third and fourth.
