Player to watch

The player to watch is Clint Frazier. He has been on an absolute tear this season, he has a .351 average so far which is 12th in the majors (tied with Austin Meadows). Frazier also has 5 home runs and 14 RBIs, he added one homer yesterday. Frazier has only been looking better of late and he could have a big game today.

Pitching Match Up

Today's Match up will feature Jorge Lopez and Jame Paxton. Lopez has had a decent start to the season even with his 0 and 2 record, however Lopez has already allowed 6 home runs this season so that could come into play in the Bronx. Paxton is coming off of an absolutely dominating start against the Red Sox when he threw 8 shut out innings with 12 strikeouts. If Paxton pitches like that today the Yankees will have nothing to worry about.
