Takeaways
The Offense
The offense started slowly, but really picked it up after an Anthony Volpe two-run homer. The Yankees scored at least one run from the fifth inning on. The night was capped off by two home runs by Anthony Volpe for the first time in his career and Trent Grisham hit a go-ahead grand slam in the ninth inning against closer Raisel Iglesias, winning the game for the Yankees.
Starting Pitching Analysis
Will Warren looked sharp with two outs in the fourth inning and then lost his control completely and ended up needed to be pulled from the game after getting into some long at-bats and giving up four runs.
Bullpen Usage
The Yankees bullpen is still running on fumes. Every reliever, accept for Luke Weaver gave up at least one run.
Shout out to Luke Weaver for pretending to be an escapologist, getting out of a bases loaded, one out jam in the seventh and pitching a scoreless eighth inning.
