The New York Yankees and the Baltimore Orioles complete
their four game series this afternoon in the Bronx in a Mother’s Day showdown
at Yankee Stadium. This has been a closely contested series and I expect
nothing less from each team this afternoon in the getaway game. This afternoon
the Yankees will send Michael Pineda to the mound looking to finish off the
series on a high note against the Orioles starter Bud Norris. The game will be
played at 1:05 pm ET and can be seen on the YES Network and on MLB TV.
- Pineda pitched easily his best game of the 2015 season last time out when the big right hander went eight innings against the Toronto Blue Jays. Pineda did not allow a run and has now won his last six decisions dating back to the 2014 season.
- Norris pitched maybe his worst start of the 2015 season last time out when his Orioles faced off against the New York Mets. Norris allowed three runs in the fourth inning but was able to go seven innings in a season high. The Orioles lost to the Mets in the contest though as New York completed the sweep over Baltimore.
After this game this afternoon the Yankees head back out
onto the road to face off with the Tampa Bay Rays, Kansas City Royals and
Washington Nationals before returning home next weekend for a series with the Texas
Rangers and Bernie Williams Day. The Yankees keep winning and keep staying in
first place making this a fun season to be a part of thus far. Let’s keep the
good times rolling this afternoon in the Bronx. Go Yankees!
