Gerrit Cole's Performance Verses Cleveland In Bronx New York Sunday Wasn't What We're Used To Seeing From Him When He Starts For New York

When Gerrit Cole starts for New York, for the team that wears the pinstripes we expect him to dominate no matter who the opponent is.

On Sunday we did not see Gerrit Cole dominate!

Where?

Bronx New York!

Verses who?

Cleveland!

Why?

He was unlucky in the first inning, victimized by a couple of soft hits, but Cleveland hit him hard the rest of the way.

How?

Gerrit Cole was knocked around for seven runs and 10 hits in an 11-1 to the Indians that also dented his chances at the American League Cy Young Award.

Harold Ramirez cued a two-run single in the first inning, then rapped a two-run single to center field in the third that eluded Aaron Judge and Brett Gardner.

Roberto Pérez laced a run-scoring single in Cleveland’s three-run third inning. José Ramírez tagged Cole for a solo homer in the fifth -- part of a four-hit performance -- and Pérez launched a drive into the left-field bullpen in the sixth.

The result?

A loss, boos from the fans at Yankee Stadium as he left the mound, the game!

Gerrit Cole had this to say about getting booed!

“It’s a bad game, man. That’s New York,” he said

Gerrit Cole had this to say his performance!

“It sucks to lose like this,” Cole said. “It still sucks to not really have a clear and concise answer for what the problem is so you can go ahead and fix it. It’s going to be tough to shower off. It’s not going to be easy. It certainly doesn’t make it any easier to have confidence, but at the same time, we don’t really have a choice.”
