Gerrit Cole & recorded fans tune up for Yankees debuts
NEW YORK The crowd noise was phony. Those runs in the fourth inning were the only ones Cole allowed over 5 2/3 innings Friday night. He thought the crowd noise was a work in progress. It kind of sounds the same, I guess, if youre in your zone and youre and youre not really paying attention, he said. Warren wont be ready to pitch at the major league level until next year and the Yankees could re-sign him.
Series loss to Yankees brings out worst in Tigers
When the Tigers welcomed the New York Yankees to Comerica Park Monday, they did so as the best team in baseball. Detroit entered the Yankees series averaging 5.7 runs per game. Warren, who has never thrown a quality start in his short career, stumped the Tigers' offense while the Yankees exploded for eight runs against Price. Detroit scored four times in the 1st inning without making much solid contact, as four of the first five batters reached via the free pass and eventually scored. But that doesn't overshadow the fact that this vaunted Tigers offense scored just seven runs in games started by Sabathia, Eovaldi and Warren.
