ANAHEIM, Calif. — Carlos Rodón had just thrown his 100th pitch of the night when Aaron Boone made a quick jog out to the mound in the bottom of the seventh inning. The Yankees had a reliever ready and the Angels had a man on second, their first base runner since the third inning.
According to Baseball Savant, his average exit velocity has increased to 90.8 mph, and his hard-hit percentage has risen to 39%. Additionally, his expected weighted on-base average (xwOBA) stands at .319. Defensively, you can just see with your eyes he can really pick it.
The Yankees won on Tuesday despite another rocky outing from Devin Williams. The Yankees closer and manager Aaron Boone reacted.
