Gerrit Cole Returns to Mound for Yankees

Gerrit Cole is set to start for the New York Yankees on Saturday, June 27, as they face the Boston Red Sox. This will be Cole's seventh start of the season after returning from Tommy John surgery.

The Yankees are looking to bounce back from a loss, and Cole's performance will be crucial in determining the outcome. The Red Sox have claimed the first two games of the series.

Cole will face off against lefty Jake Bennett, who has a 3.71 ERA. The Yankees are favored to win, with a money line of -126.

Cole's last start was not promising, as he gave up five earned runs in 4.1 innings in a loss at Detroit on Monday. However, he has been largely effective this season, with a 3.62 ERA.

The Yankees are tied for fifth in Major League Baseball in runs scored this season and rank first in home runs. Ben Rice is expected to be back in the lineup for the Yankees.

The Red Sox have scored at least five runs in four straight games. The model projects the teams to combine for 8.8 runs.

The first pitch from Fenway Park in Boston is set for 1:10 p.m. ET. The over/under for total runs is 8.
