Overview

  • Doval entered the sixth inning with a 3-2 lead on Aug. 21, recorded one out, then allowed the tying run on two hits around a walk as boos rained at Yankee Stadium.
  • He has been charged with six earned runs in 7 1/3 innings over nine games with New York, posting a 7.36 ERA with seven walks and eight strikeouts.
  • Aaron Boone said Doval’s raw stuff looks strong but emphasized that sharper strike-throwing is needed for consistent results.
  • Doval said he is adjusting to earlier preparation and a different usage pattern than his former closer role with the Giants.
  • New York acquired Doval and David Bednar at the deadline, and Boone has turned to Bednar for recent save chances, including three saves since the trade.
