After the game, Boone said that it wasn’t a hard decision to pull Schmidt, even in the midst of a no-hitter.
“He was done,” Boone said, when asked how badly Schmidt wanted to get back on the mound. “As great as he was today, I think physically, all day, it was a little bit of a challenge for him. So I kind of knew even after the fifth, it wasn’t gonna be long.”
On offense, it didn’t take long for the Yankees to start putting runs on the board: Center fielder Trent Grisham, second in the batting order, kicked things off with a solo homer. J.C. Escarra and Ben Rice added two more solo homers in the second inning; in the fifth, with the Yankees holding a 6-0 lead, Anthony Volpe added another solo homer of his own.
