Gerrit Cole remained locked in as the Yankees splashed around the bases in a wet and wild sixth inning, fully expecting to return to work if play continued. The ace swapped out his soggy uniform pants, performed some push-ups and played catch, intent upon helping snap his team’s season-long drought against the Red Sox.
Cole then eyed the soaked mound suspiciously, as one might inspect the spoiled contents of a neglected refrigerator. There were no more pitches to throw; Gary Sánchez and Gleyber Torres supplied enough thunder to lead the Yankees past Boston for the first time this season, celebrating a rain-shortened 3-1 victory on Saturday night at Yankee Stadium.
