New York Yankees Series Preview: Yanks Square Off Against Familiar Face To Kickoff Home Stand
Game Times and Predictions:
- Game 1: Friday, 7:05 PM ET, YES/ROOT Sports
- Game 2: Saturday, 1:05 PM ET, YES/MLBN
- Game 3: Sunday, 1:05 PM ET, YES/ROOT Sports
The forecast is calling for highs of 64, 66, and 66 over the weekend with no rain, much better than the first series in the Bronx.
With the warm weather, New York hopes it can heat the bats up enough during this small two-game losing streak to help the team take a shot at its former second baseman.
Roster Move:
The Yankees sent Luis Cessa down to Triple-A and called up Tyler Olsen.
Bold Prediction:
Luis Severino will pitch 7+ innings with 10+ strikeouts tonight and the Yankees take their brooms out on Sunday to complete the sweep.
