Overview

  • On a 1-2 pitch in the fourth inning, first-base umpire Bill Miller ruled that Jo Adell did not check his swing despite the batter walking toward the dugout
  • Rodon retired seven consecutive batters following the call and finished six innings with four hits allowed and seven strikeouts
  • The Yankees scored seven runs to halt their six-game losing streak and improve to a 3-7 record over their last 10 games
  • Manager Aaron Boone acknowledged umpiring imperfections but credited Rodon’s composure for stabilizing the outing
  • New York added left-hander Jayvien Sandridge to the active roster and placed reliever Yerry de los Santos on the injured list that day
