After a forgettable Thursday night, the Yankees face another lefty on Friday night at Fenway Park.
The Red Sox’s 6-foot-6, 250-pound starter Payton Tolle (3-5, 3.08) is scheduled to oppose right-hander Will Warren (7-2, 3.45) in the second game of a four-game set.
In Thursday’s series opener, the Yankees committed a season-high four errors in a 6-3 loss to the last-place Red Sox.
You’d have to go back to July 21, 1913, to find the last time a Yankees team that permitted six unearned runs – in a game at Detroit.
Meanwhile at Class AAA Scranton/Wilkes-Barre, Carlos Lagrange’s transition from starter to reliever moved into a new phase.
On three days rest, Lagrange picked up his first save, tossing 1.1 innings and lowering his ERA to 1.98 in six relief outings since his June 3 bullpen assignment.
The 6-foot-7 Lagrange, 23, yielded one hit, one walk, hit a batter and worked out of a first-and-second, none out jam in the ninth.
According to MLB.com, Lagrange’s fastball reached 101.5-mph. He’s registered 19 strikeouts (vs. six walks) in 13.2 innings as a reliever.
Lagrange could be in play for the Yankees’ bullpen sometime after the All-Star break, and the Yanks also be seeking further upgrades by the Aug. 3 MLB trade deadline.
Before tonight's game, the Yankees activated catcher Ali Sanchez from the paternity list and optioned lefty-hitting catcher J.C. Escarra back to Class AAA Scranton/Wilkes-Barre.
Of note tonight, Spencer Jones is getting a start against a lefty and Amed Rosario is at DH, with Jose Caballero at third base and moved ahead of Anthony Volpe in the order.
Here is the Yankees' Friday night lineup:
