Two double plays. Twelve strikeouts. A 2-for-11 mark with runners in scoring position. A .165 team xBA on the night against the Orioles’ vaunted pitching staff. This was not at all a recipe for resounding offensive success, and the Yankees failed to score more than a single run in 11 innings. The walk-off walk from the arm of Aroldis Chapman was just the turd cherry on top.
But hey, at least Cameron Maybin made his debut in the booth tonight! The new addition to the YES Network called his first Yankees game and got into a groove early, working well with Michael Kay.
