A late comeback wasn’t enough for the Yankees in their 6-4 loss to Cleveland on Monday, after Clarke Schmidt, despite seven strikeouts, had nothing working in his second start back from injury. New York will turn to another young righty to even the series on Tuesday: rookie Will Warren.
The former Southeastern Louisiana product has been up and down all season, going 1-0 with a 5.17 ERA across four starts. In his last start, against the Rays on Thursday, Warren had no control of his fastball and exited embarrassingly early.
The Yankees won the game 6-4, but Warren lasted just 1.
