The New York Yankees made the head-scratching decision to use Domingo German in relief after he was scratched with armpit discomfort on Monday night.
was set to start the game at the beginning of the day, but he was scratched from the start due to discomfort in his armpit. New York put Jhony Brito on the bump as the opener, but his night did not last too long either. Brito went four innings and allowed five runs on six hits.
German said through a translator that he felt good after the game, but he said he started to feel discomfort on Friday and got worse after his bullpen Saturday. "That's why I was so worried about it. Because it was a different kind of sensation," he added."So overall I think it was the best thing I did, to discuss it with our trainers and follow their advice."
Yankees manager Aaron Boone said he did not feel like German was hurt enough to be placed on the injured list.
