Yankees' Gerrit Cole Exits vs. Dodgers with Cramps After Initial Injury Concerns
New York Yankees ace Gerrit Cole appears to have avoided the worst-case scenario after being pulled from Saturday's game against the Los Angeles Dodgers.
Cole was yanked from his start on Saturday after tossing just 80 pitches in six innings, which caused some concern among the New York fan base. However, insider Ken Rosenthal reported on the Fox broadcast that the veteran was pulled due to cramping.
