Luis Gil continued his historic performance for the New York Yankees, pitching six scoreless innings against the Minnesota Twins, lowering his ERA to 1.82. This outing marked his seventh consecutive game with six or more innings pitched and one or fewer runs allowed, the longest such streak in Yankees history. Only three pitchers have had longer streaks since 1901: Bob Gibson, Jack Coombs, and Jon Lester. Gil's dominance was complemented by home runs from Gleyber Torres and Giancarlo Stanton, leading the Yankees to their sixth consecutive win. Gil's opponent batting average of .153 is the lowest through a pitcher's first 19 career starts in the live-ball era.
