Weathers Battles Lingering Stomach Illness in Short Start as Yankees Lose 6-1 to Twins

Curtailing his outing, Weathers's aftereffects underscore New York's pitching strain with Max Fried still on the injured list and rehabbing.

Overview

  • Ryan Weathers, who started on Sunday, said he threw up several times during the game and was removed after roughly four innings having allowed four earned runs.
  • The Yankees fell 6-1 to the Twins, dropped the series and suffered their third consecutive series loss as the offense managed only one run.
  • Manager Aaron Boone acknowledged Weathers was “under the weather” and praised his effort despite the curtailed, uneven outing.
  • Ace Max Fried remains on the injured list but completed a second live batting-practice session of 36 pitches as he continues his ramp-up toward rehab starts.
  • The short-term illness and Weathers's struggle add to New York's rotation depth worries and offensive lapses, a dynamic that could shape the club's approach to upcoming games and Fried’s reintegration.
