Gerrit Cole strong in first start since being scratched in encouraging Yankees sign
NY Post
Gerrit Cole stabilized a bit on Sunday.
After missing his spot in the rotation with what was termed as “body fatigue,” the reigning AL Cy Young winner made his return to the mound and put together a solid outing to help the Yankees in their rain-delayed, 10-inning, 4-3 win against the Blue Jays in The Bronx.
Cole finished with six hits allowed, two earned runs and four strikeouts in 5 ²/₃ innings pitched.
“It was a good position to make pitches all day, and then I kind of started to gain some momentum and steam as the game started rolling,” said Cole, who assured that he felt good during and after his outing. “So, you know, those are good markers for that.”
There was some apparent discomfort early on.
In addition to holding the top of his shoulder and raising his arm at one point, Cole gave up hits to six of the first 11 batters he faced.
