Gerrit Cole Allows Five Runs in Loss vs Tigers

Gerrit Cole allowed five runs in a loss to the Tigers. On June 22, he struggled, giving up nine hard-hit balls and seven hits.

Gerrit Cole's performance was marked by two home runs, one from Masataka Yoshida and another from Anthony Seigler.

The loss is a setback for Cole, who has a 7.13 ERA in 10 starts against the Red Sox since 2022.

Gerrit Cole will face the Twins on Friday, looking to improve his 2-3 record and 4.06 ERA since returning from elbow surgery.

Yankees manager Aaron Boone downplayed concerns about Gerrit Cole's health, stating the team wants to give everyone in the rotation an extra day of rest.

Gerrit Cole threw 83 pitches, averaging 97.6 mph with his fastball, and peaked at 100.0 mph.

The Yankees are in the midst of a long stretch without a day off, so they wanted to give their starters some extra rest.

Gerrit Cole will now face the Tigers in Detroit, rather than the Reds at home.

He got up to 90 pitches, seven more than he'd thrown in any of his first four starts, and is 2-1 with a 24/8 K/BB through 28 innings.

Gerrit Cole was checked on by the trainer following an odd play, but was able to remain in the game.

He threw 83 pitches to get his 12 outs, which was probably why he didn’t come out for the fifth.

Gerrit Cole's velocity was great, but he walked two and hit a batter, with a catcher’s interference also driving up his pitch count.

The Yankees are off Thursday and Monday, so Gerrit Cole figures to make his next start next Tuesday against the White Sox.

Gerrit Cole was charged with four runs on six hits and one walk while striking out two.

He pitched much better in his first two outings back from Tommy John, including a 10-strikeout gem last time out.

Gerrit Cole was utterly dominant, facing just three batters over the minimum and forcing 15 swings-and-misses.

He got some help from his defense when Aaron Judge threw a strike to nail Michael Massey at home plate.

After that, just one more Royal reached scoring position as the righties had fits trying to put a bat on Gerrit Cole's slider and lefties the same with his changeup.

It was all held up by his fastball that consistently sat around 97.

Gerrit Cole will look to get back on track next time out in the same matchup against the Guardians, but this time in Cleveland.
