Following New York’s the team that wears the pinstripes 5-0 win on Opening Day Gerrit Cole who started the game for New York for the team that wears the pinstripes had this to say about his start on Opening Day!
It was cold. It was tough to feel the hand. I didn’t think my command was great all day. I did make some good pitches in some good situations,”I thought that [catcher Jose Trevino] was using what we had really well and he was locked in, giving us the most margin for error in the pitches that he was calling.”After the first batter, I would have told you I would have been happy to get through five innings,”“I didn’t quite know how it was going to shake out with the way I started the game. Strikeouts or no strikeouts, I just need to keep the team in the ballgame and hold the lead. It’s a really special moment, but it wasn’t my focus. I was glad I was able to get the job done regardless.”“[Judge] came up and woke everybody up and showed us that he was here to play,” Cole said. “It was a cool moment for him and it was just an inspiring moment for me and I just took it in stride.”
Though, Gerrit Cole wasn’t the only one to talk about his Opening Day start as San Francisco manager Gabe Kepler did as well saying He’s one of the best pitchers in the game,I think our approach was as good as it could have been. We drove his pitch count up. We just weren’t able to finish those counts with line-drive hits.
“I think for me, personally, this is very much a story of two excellent starts. A couple of home runs for them. We weren’t able to get the ball in the air and hit those home runs. That’s why they came out on the winning end of this."
Gerrt Cole had this to say about Aaron Judge who is captain of team that wears the pinstripes hitting home run in his inaugural at bat of 2023 season!
[Judge] came up and woke everybody up and showed us that he was here to play,”It was a cool moment for him and it was just an inspiring moment for me and I just took it in stride.”

New York the team that wears the pinstripes has the night off Friday before continuing their series that is a three game series with San Francisco Saturday afternoon where Clarke Schmidt, Alex Cobb are going to be starting on the mound!
Clarke Schmidt, Alex Cobb are alike because they’re both are right handed pitchers both come into the game with record of 0-0 with no earn run averages.
Though,
Will the series between New York the team that wears pinstripes, San Francisco actually continue on Saturday afternoon? Mother nature is likely going to have that say as it’s supposed to be windy with showers, heavier, cloudy then clouds, sun in afternoon wind, will be locally damaging.

First pitch is set for 4:05pm from Yankee Stadium!
The game is going to be televised on Fox!
