Gerrit Cole was fired up in the seventh inning.
After Mariners second baseman Jose Caballero played some mind games at the dish, the Yankees ace threw one of his fastest pitches of the night and wagged his finger at Caballero’s after an inning-ending strikeout during Tuesday night’s 3-1 win.
Cole appeared to be upset over some of Caballero’s antics during the at-bat, which included flipping the bat after a foul ball. After Caballero took him time to get into the batters’ box after using his timeout, a visibly frustrated Cole fired a ball well above Caballero’s head and off the screen behind home place.
And if Cole’s displeasure wasn’t evident enough at that point, he made it abundantly clear later in the at-bat when he got Caballero to fan on a 98 mph fastball to end the inning. Gerrit Cole was frustrated by Jose Caballero's antics between pitches. Cole responded by throwing his fastest pitch of the night, throwing another one over his head and then jawing at him after striking him out
