The real debut will likely come on April 1 in The Bronx against his former team, but until then, Sunday will have to suffice for Carlos Rodon’s first game as a Yankee.
After the first inning, manager Aaron Boone went to Rodon and told him to stop trying to reach for fastballs.
“I wanted to reach back and throw harder,” Rodon said. “But I told myself to trust the process, I guess. But a younger me would have said, ‘Eff that, I’m going to throw one as hard as I can right here.’ I’m glad I didn’t do that.”Instead, Rodon took his licks as the Braves jumped on him for three more runs, including a two-run homer from Austin Riley, before his day ended with a pair of runners on base and no outs in the third inning.
