The Yankees are finally back home after that ten-game road trip that seemed like it would never end. They return home to kick off HOPE Week, the team’s annual community outreach event.
Today the Yankees were in New Rochelle to help Stars for Cars, a charity organized by 14-year-old Jake Gallin. He’s been raising money to help military families since 2011 by selling magnetic star decals people can put on their cars. Ryan Hatch has more on today’s HOPE Week event. I’m sure there will be video during tonight’s game broadcast.
As for the Yankees on the field … gosh, do I have to talk about them? They kinda stink. Well, not kinda. They do stink. Only the Rays, Athletics, and Twins have worse records in the AL. The Yankees have lost eight of their last 12 games overall. That’s come immediately after an 8-2 stretch. Blah. Here is the Angels’ lineup and here is the Yankees’ lineup:
- CF Jacoby Ellsbury
- LF Brett Gardner
- RF Carlos Beltran
- DH Alex Rodriguez
- C Brian McCann
- 2B Starlin Castro
- SS Didi Gregorius
- 3B Chase Headley
- 1B Rob Refsnyder
RHP Masahiro Tanaka
The weather has been very nice in New York today. It’s a little cloudy but warm and breezy. Pretty nice night for a ballgame. Tonight’s series opener with the Angels will begin a little after 7pm ET. You can watch on YES. Enjoy.
