The Yankees’ needed to use six pitchers in Toronto to limp to the finish line in the final game of an 11-game road trip, only to lose to the Blue Jays, 6-4 at Rogers Centre.
It wasn’t just the Yankees use of half a dozen arms which was the oddity, though. It was that none of them are traditionally starters, and none threw more than two innings.
Similarly, the Blue Jays removed starter Wilmer Font after just an inning, but subsequently got 5⅓ innings from T.J. Zeuch, who struck out five to earn his first Major League victory.
Such is the life, at times, of September baseball.
