The New York Yankees saw an uncharacteristically bad outing from Gerrit Cole, who made history for about five minutes before unraveling in the second inning. The Texas Rangers, on the other hand, managed the timely hits and carried the struggling Jordan Lyles to a 5-2 win.

Prior to tonight’s game, the Yankees reinstated INF Rougned Odor (#18) from the 10-day injured list.
