A nice bounceback from Friday’s yucky loss, that was. The Yankees scored early and often against possible trade target J.A. Happ en route to an 8-5 win over the Blue Jays on Saturday afternoon. They’re 57-29 with a +115 run differential on the season. Pretty awesome.
An Un-Happ-y Start For J.A.
For the second time in as many starts, the Yankees staked Luis Severino to a 4-0 lead in the first inning. Last time they were at home and Severino had already thrown a scoreless top of the first. On Saturday they were on the road and the offense built a lead before Severino even took the mound.
