MINNEAPOLIS – Luis Severino said Gary Sanchez and he had solved the confusion they had with the signs that hit them last week in Oakland, where the drums died.
"We have solved all the problems we had," said Severino, after the Twins left the Yankees 10-5 on Tuesday night at Target Field.
This is not all that Severino and Sanchez have to repair Wednesday night, while the right-hander hopes to end a long slide that explains in part why the Yankees are only two poor outperformed by Athletics in the title race. map and home field for the match of 3 October.
"Nobody here [feels] pressure. We have an excellent team, "said Severino. "We lose a match, it's nothing. We must return [Wednesday]. ''
It would be useful for Severino to look like the pitcher he was in the first half instead of the one who went from a serious contender for the AL Cy Young Award to the away despite 17 wins.
Severino is a candidate to start the wild card game, but he needs to improve on Wednesday to stay in the discussion, which also includes J.A. Happ and Masahiro Tanaka.
"[Starts] are all significant now. Obviously, we want to make sure that Sevy can go as he can, "said Aaron Boone of the right-hander, who is 4-5 with an ERA of 6.83 in his last 11 starts. 55 ¹ / ₃ sleeves. "We felt he was starting to get a little bit of momentum and made a difficult start in Oakland. We are really excited about his elephant the other day. "
Last Wednesday, against the A, Severino allowed six points (five won) and six hits in ² / ₃ innings and suffered a defeat of 8-2. The cross-signals led Severino to throw two wild shots and Sanchez was charged with two passing balls – all in the first run. Severino will work on six days of rest.
"If we can roll him around and convince him, obviously, he's changing the game," said Boone. "He's a guy we can match with anyone in the sport when he's fine and [Wednesday] can be the beginning of that. "
With Boone doubling Austin Romine with Sonny Gray on Tuesday, Sanchez was the DH and Giancarlo Stanton started in the left field.
"I had the impression that it was a day, [Brett Gardner] has been beaten a bit lately, so one day to give him a day [off]Boone said of his left-field player, who was 2-in-5 in Monday night's 7-2 win. "Slide Gary into this DH slot and hope he's still having good bats. "
Sanchez, on Monday, easily played his best game since returning from the DL when he went 3-for-5 and hit a 460-foot circuit. Tuesday was not so good. He was 0-in-3, was eliminated twice, played a double game and made a flying shot.
The Yankees' eight-game winning streak against the Yankees ended Tuesday night. A win on Wednesday night would give the Yankees their 13th consecutive win against the Twins.
