Where?

Detroit Michigan!

Why?

Because New York struggled defensively as well as offensively in the finale.

How?

Gleyber Torres had two errors.

When?

In the third inning.

Because he fumbled two ground balls.

Though the two errors by Gleyber Torres who is New York’s shortstop weren’t only errors in the finale as his teammate Gio Urshela who is New York’s third baseman made an error too as he fumbled a broken bat grounder.

Bronx New York where Jameson Taillon who is a right handed pitcher is going to be starting the game for New York!

He comes into the game with a record of 1-3 with an earn run average of 5.06.

Jameson Taillon is looking for a strong follow-up after throwing five scoreless innings and allowing just two hits to the White Sox in his last start. The right-hander is 1-1 in two career starts against the Rays, allowing four earned runs in 11 innings.

Jameson Taillon is going to be opposing Tampa Bay’s Rich Hill who unlike him is a left handed pitcher.
