The New York Yankees didn’t have a great weekend inside
Tropicana Field but if the last series between these two teams is any indicator
then New York may have found the medicine and the remedy for that tough
weekend. New York is welcoming Kansas City home to the Bronx tonight in the
second of a four-game set inside Yankee Stadium with a rematch of one of the
games last week in Kansas City. A southpaw showdown goes down tonight as the
Yankees send Jordan Montgomery to the mound to square off with Dany Duffy for
the Royals.
Montgomery took the loss in his last start against these
same Kansas City Royals after giving up five runs in five innings of work
inside Kauffman Stadium. Mike Moustakas hit a three-run home run off the
Yankees rookie landing him in the “L” column for his second straight start. You
have to wonder just how short the leash is for Montgomery with Chance Adams’
recent promotion to Triple-A.
Duffy won his last start against the New York Yankees
tossing seven shutout innings while giving up just three hits at home. This
time Duffy is on the road but regardless he will look to replicate his 10
strikeout and two walk performance from last week.
The game will be played at 7:05 pm ET inside Yankee Stadium
and can be seen on the YES Network and MLB TV. You can also follow along on the
radio and in your cars by tuning into John Sterling and Suzyn Waldman’s
broadcast on WFAN. Enjoy the game everyone and as always, Go Yankees!!
A winning season beat up the teams 500 or below and hold you own against the better teams
