But this question remains!
Will Gerrit Cole, Brandon Crawford have the opportunity to get in the game tonight for their leagues?
Why?
Because Gerrit Cole showed why he is the ace of New York’s starting rotation in his return to Houston on Saturday July 10, 2021 !
How?
Gerrit Cole threw a complete game, a shutout and only gave up three hits and struck out twelve while throwing 129 pitches to his former team.
Before having the opportunity to get to 129 pitches though Gerrit Cole had to make his feelings known!
To who?
His manager Aaron Boone!
The Yankees ace snarled atop the mound, barking a few choice expletives that began with the letter “F” into the face of his manager. On this night, in this ballpark, absolutely no one was taking the baseball out of his right hand.
