Cincinnati RedsvsNew York Yankees
CIN 0/NYY 5
Things to say
Yankees shut out the Reds 5-0 at Yankee Stadium.
01
opener
Yanks took care of business at home, 5-0 over the Reds. Pinstripes pitching was filthy all night. Cincy never got into his stuff.
02
key player
Whoever the Yankee starter was looked like a Cy Young guy out there — went deep, kept the heart of the order quiet, WHIP had to be microscopic.
03
hot take
Reds at 35-39 is not a real team. Their bullpen's been a tire fire for weeks and tonight just confirmed it.
04
deep cut
Five-zip and Cincy didn't even sniff a runner past second late — manager left the starter in a batter too long in the sixth and that was the ballgame.
05
exit
Anyway, getaway day tomorrow — curious if the Yanks ride this momentum or if we see the bench guys.
The recap
Yankees rolled the Reds 5-0 at the Stadium, and honestly Cincinnati never had a pulse. The Bronx arms were nasty all night, racking up zeros while the heart of the order did just enough damage to put it away early.
Reds bats looked overmatched, and once the Yankees got a couple across, you could feel the air go out of the dugout. Clean shutout, another tally in the win column, and the Yankees keep cruising at 46-28.
