Game 92 - New York Yankees at Detroit Tigers

April 21 at Comerica Park in Detroit, MI
YES Network

Chris Young is considered the Yankees' fourth outfielder, but through the first two weeks of the season he's been their best. Young was a triple short of the cycle Tuesday, which included his fourth home run in a 5-2 New York win. He's put together a .344/.432/.844 line so far and is tied with three others for the team-lead in home runs. Here is that list:

- Young - back up outfielder
- Stephen Drew - Stephen Drew!
- Alex Rodriguez - had played 44 games from 2013-2014
- Mark Teixeira - wrist could detach from his body at any moment

Speaking of power, if you locate Carlos Beltran and Brian McCann's, please return it to the New York Yankees, Bronx, NY, United States of America.

Nathan Eovaldi was a bright spot as well Tuesday, holding the excellent Detroit offense to just one run in seven innings. Kyle Lobstein allowed one run in six innings, then the Tigers' bullpen was extremely helpful as four relievers combined to allow three earned runs over the final three innings.
