All-Star Performance: Carlos Rodón's Best Start for the Yankees
On a sunny afternoon at Yankee Stadium, Carlos Rodón delivered a masterful performance against the reigning World Series champions. The left-hander, who was selected to the All-Star team for the first time this season, showed why he deserved the honor by twirling his best start in pinstripes. With his fastball reaching 99 mph and his slider fooling batters left and right, Rodón dominated the Houston Astros lineup for seven scoreless innings. He struck out 8 and only allowed 3 hits, leading the Yankees to a 4-0 victory.
