Luis Gil ‘superb’ for Yankees once again in win over Angels
NY Post
ANAHEIM, Calif. — Before Luis Gil made his sixth and final start of the month, Aaron Boone called his May “superb.”
The right-hander might as well have told the Yankees manager to hold his beer.
Gil capped off a terrific month with yet another gem, completing eight innings for the first time in his career to lift the Yankees to a 2-1 win over the Angels on Wednesday night at Angel Stadium.
Needing an efficient 95 pitches to make it through eight innings, Gil allowed just two hits — one of them a solo home run in the bottom of the seventh — as well as two walks and one run while striking out nine.
With strong command of his high-90s fastball, he smashed his previous career high of 6 ¹/₃ innings.
“I don’t think anyone’s really surprised within the clubhouse or the organization,” said Anthony Volpe, who provided the winning run by hitting a triple and scoring on a throwing error in the seventh inning. “But the level he’s doing it [at] and the lineups he’s doing it against, I think we’re all just blown away. It pumps everyone up when you get the lineup and you see his name at the bottom of it.
