Carlos Carrasco was, well, kind of what you’d expect against a lineup with a bunch of Yankees regulars. He walked Aaron Judge, gave up a cheapie lofted-down-the-line homer to Jazz Chisholm Jr., and then got knocked around, ball-in-play variety. The Braves lifted him when it was 4-0 and fill-in Schay Schanaman was greeted with another double that made it 5-0. The rest of the Atlanta pitching slate was pretty boring: Elieser Hernandez, Taylor Scott, Austin Pope, and Anthony Molina. Yankees pitching put together an 11/1 K/BB ratio, which isn’t necessarily surprising given the lineup the Braves sent over to Tampa.
