Game 108: Bounce Back
Red Sox 4, Yankees 1: One hit and a third straight loss

MLB.com posted their updated farm system rankings today and the Yankees, despite all the recent graduations and trades, still rank tenth.”(They) still have one of baseball’s deeper systems and seem to have a never-ending supply of pitching prospects,” says the write-up.

The Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre RailRiders were rained out. They’re going to play a doubleheader tomorrow. Conor Foley says RHP Mike King is coming up from Trenton to start Sunday. Not sure whether that’s a spot start or a permanent promotion.

  • LF Trey Amburgey: 1-4, 1 2B, 2 K

  • LHP Phil Diehl: 3.1 IP, 1 H, 0 R, 0 ER, 1 BB, 1 K, 4/1 GB/FB — 31 of 47 pitches were strikes (66%)
