Yankees Beat White Sox 9-5 Despite Poor Start from Fried

The Yankees won this game 9-5. It might be the case that the Yankees have found their right-handed hitting catcher. Max Fried pitched only three innings and threw just 66 pitches. With all of their injuries, the team will have to win games like low-scoring games, unlike tonight. Great pitching, adequate defense, and few runs.

The anemic Yankees scored 9 runs in a game when one would have expected the team to win a low-scoring, close game. The Yankees did well to sign Max Fried to a large free agent contract with some of the money left over from not signing Juan Soto. The strength of the team is their pitching. Specifically, their starting pitching has been great lately, though not tonight. They are winners of 10 of their last 13 games. They even scored some runs tonight. Do you think the team will be able to win its upcoming games?
