SP NYY
Gerrit Cole wasn't terrific on Friday, but picked up his fourth consecutive victory, allowing three runs on eight hits over his six innings.
Cole, who had exhibited tremendous command in his first three starts, issued three free passes in this one while striking out three. All of the damage came in the first inning, but the young right-hander settled in very nicely afterwards. Cole sports a 3.70 ERA, 1.23 WHIP and 11/4 K/BB ratio to go along with his 4-0 record. He'll strive for a fifth consecutive victory when he does battle against the Phillies at home on Wednesday.
