ANAHEIM, Calif. — Even without last year’s AL Cy Young Award winner, the New York Yankees starting staff has put together a run for the record books. With Nestor Cortes allowing only two runs in 5 1/3 innings on Tuesday night against the Los Angeles Angels, the Yankees set a major league record with their starters going 15 straight games where they have tossed at least five innings and allowed two runs or fewer.
Luis Gil, who takes the mound on Wednesday, is tied for second in the AL in wins and has a 2.11 ERA, which was fifth entering Tuesday. Carlos Rodón also has six wins and Clarke Schmidt’s 2.52 ERA was ninth in the AL. “I’m not surprised by what any of those guys are doing individually. When Gerrit went down it made it challenging. We had to get answers to questions,” Boone said. “But if you tell me all five of those guys are doing what they’re doing I’m not surprised.
