Cole Passes Clemens, Yankees Sweep | New York Yankees News

Gerrit Cole just shattered franchise history, passing Roger Clemens for 10th all-time in strikeouts with a dominant 8-K, 1-run, 6-inning performance against the Orioles. He was lights-out efficient, throwing 93 pitches and dominating hitters with first-pitch strikes. His line: 7-6, 3.11 ERA, 100 Ks to 20 walks. The Yankees offense delivered too, with a 3-run 3rd, Ben Rice and Heliot Ramos driving in runs, and Spencer Jones and Luis García Jr. launching back-to-back homers. The win completed a 3-game sweep, giving the Yankees the best road record in the AL and putting them right in the thick of the AL East race as the Orioles hit a four-game losing streak.
