New York Yankees: Nasty Nate Takes Hill, Ellsbury On The Mend

Tuesday night in the Bronx brings the Oakland A’s to town to face Nate Eovaldi. Meanwhile, Jacoby Ellsbury eyes Wednesday as return.
Tonight at Yankee Stadium, 7:05 pm ET, the New York Yankees will host the Oakland Athletics to begin a three-game set.
Nate Eovaldi will receive the start as he faces MLB All-Star Sonny Gray (9-3, 2.09 ERA).
The last time the Yanks faced Gray was back on May 29 of this season. They fell in defeat by the final of 6-2.

Meanwhile, the push to get Brett Gardner into the MLB All-Star Game rages on. The man who currently sports a .297 average with 9 HR, 39 RBI, 60 R and 15 SB was left off the squad by Kansas City Royals manager Ned Yost.
He is a finalist for the final fan vote.
