As New York is hosting San Francisco for three game series today (Opening Day) for 2023 regular season today in Bronx New York Gerrit Cole, Logan Webb are starting.

Where?

On the mound!

Gerrit Cole, Logan Webb are alike because they’re both right handed pitchers!

Gerrit Cole, Logan Webb both come into the game with record of 0-0 with no earn run average because this is their inaugural game of the regular season they’re pitching, starting on the mound for 2023 regular season.

For the fourth straight season, the Yankees will start Cole on Opening Day. Gerrit Cole, who now holds New York's all-time single-season strikeout record, joins CC Sabathia (2009-14), Mel Stottlemyre (1967-70), Lefty Gomez (1932-37) and Jack Chesbro (1903-06) as the only pitchers to make at least four consecutive Opening Day starts for New York.

Logan Webb will be the first Giants pitcher to make consecutive Opening Day starts since Madison Bumgarner in 2016-17. The right-hander is coming off a season in which he recorded a 2.90 ERA over 192 1/3 innings and received a couple of down-ballot NL Cy Young Award votes.

Ahead of Opening Day with Gerrit Cole, Logan Webb opposing each other on the mound Gerrit Cole had this to say!

That’s what I’m lined up to do,”We try to do things a bit more ‘one day at a time,’ I think, for a number of reasons. But that’s what the plan is.”Good pitcher; nice guy,“I really like the way he pitches. Aggressive, good sinker, good dude. He’s good friends with my brother-in-law [the Giants’ Brandon Crawford]. I played some TopGolf with him. He’s tough to elevate. He’s got a hell of a sinker.
