While the New York Yankees managed to escape Opening Day with a victory due to a rainout, game two of the regular season against the Washington Nationals didn’t go as smoothly.
The Yankees fell 9-2, and will face off against Washington on Sunday afternoon at 1 PM. There were more negatives to take away than positives in this contest.
Let’s take a look at one winner and one loser for the New York Yankees:
LOSER: James Paxton by a landslide
There is one clear-cut loser and it was James Paxton. Paxton survived just one inning, giving up five hits and three earned runs over 41 pitches.
