New York Yankees Starter Has Spectacular Outing On May 23

New York Yankees starter Luis Gil had another dominant outing.

New York Yankees Starting Pitching Luis Gil continued his great season in The Bronx on Thursday afternoon. Gil tossed 6.1 innings and surrendered a lone hit while striking out a season-high eight players in New York’s 5-0 victory.

Gil is no stranger to success on the mound as his last five starts have been nothing short of extraordinary. In his last five starts, he has surrendered only two earned runs. His stellar run started on May 1 and included starts against the Baltimore Orioles, Houston Astros, Tampa Bay Rays, Chicago White Sox, and this afternoon against the Seattle Mariners.

Gil is 6-1 this season with an ERA of 2.11. Will Gil be able to keep up his great pitching?

Luis Gil Career Summary

Gil made his debut with the New York Yankees in 2021. His spot in the rotation came to fruition once Starting Pitcher Gerrit Cole started experiencing elbow problems in Spring Training. Gil won the final spot in the rotation and has made the most of his golden opportunity.

New York Yankees Manager Aaron Boone commented before today’s game about how he will handle working Cole into the starting rotation once he is cleared to return:

“It’s three, four, five, six weeks away. If at that point, we’re in this position, then that’s a good thing. We’ll do what we have to do. … In the baseball calendar, that’s still light years away.”
Gil has a career record of 7-2 with an ERA of 2.92.

The New York Yankees are the best home run hitting team in the league and they hit two home runs in Thursday’s win. Center Fielder Aaron Judge and Designated Hitter Giancarlo Stanton both hit solo shots in the game. New York’s offense came alive in the final two games of this four-game set as they salvaged a series split against the American League west-leading Seattle Mariners.

Following a masterful start from Gil, three relievers came in to complete the three-hit shutout of Seattle. Closer Clay Holmes continued his masterful year as he recorded a four-out save and escaped a bases-loaded jam he inherited from the previous two Yankees relief pitchers that appeared in the eighth inning, Victor Gonzalez and Nick Burdi. Holmes is now second in the league with 14 saves.
New York holds the best record in the American League and the second-best record in all of Major League Baseball.
