Overview
- The Yankees dropped a 1-0 game to the Mariners on Thursday after Max Fried allowed a second-inning solo home run to Weston Wilson and finished five innings with one run allowed.
- Fried returned from a long injured-list stint with an elbow bone bruise and has been sharp in recent starts, posting a very low ERA since his return and lowering his season mark to the mid-2.00s.
- Manager Aaron Boone praised Fried’s outing but said the offense “wasn't able to do much offensively,” as New York’s lineup was shut out at Yankee Stadium.
- New York’s defense turned two key double plays and made several inning-ending plays that limited Seattle’s damage but could not produce the runs needed to win.
- Left-hander Carlos Rodón is scheduled for a roughly 55-pitch rehab start at Double-A Somerset and could rejoin the rotation in about a week, which would bolster a staff that has posted a strong sub-3.50 ERA recently.
