Jordan Montgomery Finally Gets Some Run Support, New York Tops Tampa Bay In Game One Of The Three Game Series In St. Petersburg Florida

When it’s Jordan Montgomery’s turn to start a game for New York something has been missing!

What?

Run support!

In the opening game verses Tampa Bay in a 4-3 New York win over Tampa Bay in St. Petersburg Florida the run support wasn’t missing!

Why?

New York opened scoring in the fifth inning when Greg Allen doubled and scored on a LeMahieu single, with LeMahieu having extended his on-base streak to 36 games.

Rougned Odor raced through a late “stop” sign from third-base coach Phil Nevin in the sixth inning, tumbling into home plate with the Yankees’ third run of the evening.

Ryan LaMarre’s eighth-inning solo home run off reliever Jeffrey Springs offered insurance, and the Yankees needed that when Zack Britton stumbled in a shaky home half, including a Randy Arozarena ground-rule double that trimmed New York’s lead to one run.

Gio Urshela hit a two-run double to center field in the sixth inning off Tampa Bay starter Shane McClanahan.
