Great start so far, Boston is always really good in this game so every game is definitely going to matter in the division race. Hope Paxton's okay!

He would finish with 7 K’s and 1 ER earning the complete game.

Game 52 @ Royals, Loss 3-2
The Yankees starting pitching seems to be turning itself around as James Paxton put together another quality start, just missing out on a complete game in a 5-4 win. Paxton had given up 1 run up until the 9th, but Jorge Soler hit his 2nd homer of the day, a 3-run job chasing Paxton. Aroldis Chapman came in for a 1 out save, but his struggles continue, as he walked a batter and allowed Bubba Starling to tie it up with a double. Jonathan Holder would eventually give up a walkout single Soler who had himself a night.

Game 53 @ Royals, Win 4-0
After taking 2 games off with a stiff back, Aaron Hicks hit a home run in the first innings off of Jake Junis.

Masahiro Tanaka was spectacular throwing 8 innings in the win striking out 9.
