Yankees’ Opening Day pitching matchup is set

It will be Gerrit Cole and Logan Webb on Opening Day in the Bronx, as expected.

Yankees manager Aaron Boone told reporters Cole is being lined up to get the ball March 30. The Giants have already said Webb will be their starter for the season opener.

This will be Cole’s fourth consecutive Opening Day start for the Yankees. He’s had his struggles in the spot. But he has put together a strong spring so far. Cole has struck out 17 batters in 11 innings with a 0.82 WHIP and no walks.
