Yankees Game 133: Held to two hits, offense shut down by Bundy, O's
New York Yankees offense held silent in tonight's painful loss as Chad Green exited with an elbow injury.
New York Yankees 0 – Baltimore Orioles 8
The Yankees return from the off day with a trip to Baltimore to face the Orioles.
Chad Green pitched a scoreless first inning but the second inning proved to be painful for Green and the Yankees in more ways than one. With two outs and one on, Adam Jones dropped a single into center field for the first run of the game. Pedro Alvarez dealt a big two-run home run to right field to extend the Orioles lead to three. Following a walk of Manny Machado, Green received a visit from the trainer and left with him. Due to injury, Nick Goody entered in the second inning and compounded the problem when he gave up back-to-back home runs to Chris Davis and Mark Trumbo. The six-run second inning but the Yankees in a large early hole.
In 1 2/3 innings, Green gave up four runs on five hits. He walked two and struck out three.
Following 1 1/3 innings by Goody, Kirby Yates came on in the fourth inning but walked Pedro Alvarez to start the inning. Manny Machado took Yates deep to left for a two-run home run that put the Yankees in an eight-run hole that they could not find their way out of at all. The Yankees mustered just two hits and six base runners total tonight against Dylan Bundy in 5 2/3 innings. The bullpen was perfect in 3 1/3 innings.
Jonathan Holder made his major league debut and struck out Adam Jones in a perfect inning of work. Luis Severino added a perfect inning of relief as well.
Win – Dylan Bundy (8-5)
Loss – Chad Green (2-4)
