Tampa – Max Fried made his blow lose his safe before he could lose him for himself.
The left-hander finally delivered a formidable performance on 7 ² / ₃ sleeves that raised the Yankees to a 4-0 victory against the Rays on Sunday afternoon at Steinbrenner Field, but it was slightly tainted by a controversial change of score which was announced a few minutes before the first live blow.
While Fried jogging in the mound for the bottom of the eighth, apparently working on an offer without cut in seven -rounds, the official scorer, Bill Matthews, announced in the press box that Chandler Simpson was credited at the first stroke of the Rays from two rounds earlier.
At the end of the sixth, Simpson had anchored a ball off the first goal of Paul Goldschmidt. Speedy Simpson broke out on the line and may have beaten Fried for first if Goldschmidt manipulated it properly – although Fried beat him on a similar game in the third round – but the game initially marked an error on Goldschmidt.
After examining the play several times, however, Matthews announced in the middle of the eighth round, it was “very apparent” that Simpson would have beaten Fried in the bag.
The decision finally became aimed a few minutes later, when Jake Mangum led the eighth with a simple online driving.
“I had no idea,” said Fried. “I looked up and saw two strokes. That’s what it is, I’m just happy that we got victory. ”
The successful column of the Rays showed “1” on the dashboard briefly before the mangum stroke, but the Yankees and most, if not all, of the closed windows of 10,046 were also apparently not informed at the time on the change of notation. Fried received a standing ovation after Mangum, recognizing this as the end of its offer without cutting instead of officially ending with the sixth.
“Listen, we are not going to beat (Simpson) in the bag, so I understand,” said manager Aaron Boone. “But it makes him a little risky when he is in the game, obviously with a safe blow. But the reality is that it was a success.”
Whatever the surrealist turn of events, Fried has set up another exceptional outing that allowed the Yankees (14-8) to take three of the four of the Rays (9-13) and bounce back after an overwhelming defeat on Saturday. Fernando Cruz relieved Frit and launched the last round of 1 ¹ / ₃ for his second stop.
Fried missed his shot in history, but he continued to launch like the ace of the Yankees in the absence of Gerrit Cole, even in a beginning that Boone described as a “grind” for him.
“It’s difficult,” said Aaron about the change of rating. “But I don’t think Max cares about this kind of thing. He is worried about going there and helping the team, helping us win.”
Officially, Fried granted only two strokes, two walks and struck a striker while removing two out of 102 throws. The change of notation and the mangum stroke in the eighth may have made a difficult decision in the hands of the Yankees, because they were not going to let Fried reach the range of 120 bets if he always worked on a boost.
If there had come there, Brad Ausmus would have been the one who was to draw the fried from the non -frapper because Boone had been ejected at the top of the eighth to argue a third strike on the judge – although his anger follows from land earlier, when the judge seemed to crush a home run which was called Foul on the field and was reviewed the replacement.
The Yankees obtained circuits from Trent Grisham, Cody Bellinger and Austin Wells to offer Fried racing support while his defense also helped preserve the offer without cutting (despite two errors from Oswaldo Cabrera).
Jazz Chisholm Jr. made the kind of game that each shot seems to have when he went from the second goal to the left-center field to take a diving on the Bloop of Christopher Morel in the seventh.
“Flash Gordon, just out of nowhere, Boom, came to fly,” said Boone. “What room.”
In the fifth round, Grisham fought the wind to make a strong dive into the field gap in the center right, then broke out to throw Danny Jansen, who was trying to tag second, for the double game.
Fried, who manages his position well, had made a certain speed earlier in the game for Rob Simpson suddenly. The recruit voltiseur, which stole 104 bases with minors last season, struck a ball on the ground in Goldschmidt and ran throughout the line, but Fried beat it to receive the flip for the Out.
“I’m just trying to be myself,” said Fried, who has an MPM of 1.42 in five starts like a Yankee. “When I take the ball, I want to be able to make sure that we are in a very good luck to win that day. When I prepare, I just want to make sure that I leave everything there, no matter what I feel or what are the circumstances. If we go out with victory, that’s all that really holds me.”
