The Trop is regularly a house of horrors whenever the Yankees visit, but today they stamped their mark on the unholy dome. Gerrit Cole painted a masterpiece while DJ LeMahieu launched a pair of home runs to get the series started on the right note. In fact, the whole offense continues to show signs of life, logging back-to-back games with double-digit base hits en route to a victory in the series opener at the Rays, 6-2.
The Yankees had no answer for Zach Eflin last time they faced him and that trend continued through the early going today.
