Carlos Rodón

Wednesday night brought about a cornerstone moment in Carlos Rodón’s brief New York Yankees career, his first victory with the Club. His slider, which is his money-making pitch, was on full display as he kept the New York Mets to just one run over 5 2/3 innings to go along with four punchouts. “It was nice to hear the fans happy with the performance,” the left-hander said after receiving an ovation from the fans at Yankee Stadium.
