Aaron Judge homers, Cam Schlittler dominates as Yankees blank Giants, 3-0
Cam Schlittler shoved in his first start of the 2026 season while Aaron Judge and Giancarlo Stanton left the yard as the Yankees defeated the Giants, 3-0, on Friday afternoon in San Francisco. It's the 60th time Judge and Stanton homered in the same game. After Max Fried and the bullpen blanked the Giants in Wednesday's opener, the Yankees had an encore.
Through two games, Yankees pitching has allowed zero runs on just four hits. Here are the takeaways... -Schlittler was on his game early, getting two strikeouts in the first inning, including getting Rafael Devers looking -- thanks to a successful ABS challenge by the Yanks.
Schlittler would continue to keep the Giants lineup off balance with his impressive pitch mix, even striking out four consecutive batters at one point. His only mistake came in the second when Heliot Ramos doubled off of him. That would be all the Giants would get on Schlittler, who finished with eight strikeouts across 5.
1 innings. He got 13 whiffs, most coming from his four-seamer, which averaged 98. 5 mph.
Schlittler wasn't stretched out in camp because a strained oblique set him back, so he only threw 68 pitches (49 strikes). His limit was at 70 pitches. -Manager Aaron Boone used a right-handed heavy lineup on Friday as the Yankees were going up against the southpaw Robbie Ray .
