Schlittler Shines with 13 Ks
Description
Cam Schlittler obliterated the Reds with 13 strikeouts in just 6 innings, becoming the youngest Yankees pitcher ever to notch a double-digit K game without issuing a walk, while also lowering his ERA to 1.71 — the best mark for a Yankee through 16 starts since Whitey Ford in 1964. The Yankees cruised to a 5-0 win, powered by Ben Rice’s three-run homer, Jazz Chisholm Jr.’s solo shot, and Anthony Volpe’s RBI single, marking their 10th win in 15 games despite Aaron Judge being sidelined. Schlittler’s heater averaged 97.9 mph, and he dominated with his cutters and sinkers, throwing 66 of 96 pitches for strikes. The bullpen sealed it with a four-hitter, as the Reds struck out 17 times. Meanwhile, the Reds’ Elly De La Cruz is sidelined in rehab, and the Yankees aim to keep rolling into Saturday’s showdown.
