Gerrit Cole's 20-game winning streak is a rare occurrence, just like the New York Yankees losing a game at Yankee Stadium.
Coming off their first loss at Yankee Stadium of the shortened season, the Yankees will send Cole (4-0, 2.76 ERA) to the mound in the middle game of a three-game series with the surging Tampa Bay Rays on Wednesday night.
The Yankees are 10-1 at Yankee Stadium after opening the series with a 6-3 loss Tuesday and getting a short outing from Masahiro Tanaka. An offense limited to homers by Luke Voit and Gary Sanchez kept New York from setting a team record with an 11th straight win to open a season at Yankee Stadium.
