BALTIMORE — In his first start since “[throwing] my guts up for several hours” nine days ago, Ryan Weathers took a hurl at history.
The Yankees left-hander took a no-hit bid into the seventh inning before allowing a leadoff single to Adley Rutschman Monday night at Camden Yards, dominating the Orioles while allowing only two walks and striking out nine through the first six frames.
Weathers last started on May 2 against these same Orioles, after which he returned home and got sick, resulting in losing nine pounds and being scratched from his scheduled start on Thursday.
After recovering, he threw a bullpen session on Friday in Milwaukee, clearing the way for him to start on Monday.
The 26-year-old, whose career-high in innings pitched before Monday was eight, entered this start with a 3.03 ERA on the year.
