Mike Minor, Rangers Hand Yankees First Shut Out Since June 2018 

Post#1 » by RealGM Wiretap » Tue Sep 3, 2019 2:11 am

Mike Minor and two relievers became the first pitchers in 221 tries to shut out New York\'s vaunted lineup, helping the Texas Rangers to a 7-0 victory over the AL East leaders Monday.

\"He almost made it look easy,\" Rangers manager Chris Woodward said.

The Yankees had the second longest streak without being blanked since at least 1900 behind a 308-game stretch by the Babe Ruth-led Yankees from 1931-33. New York was previously shut out June 30, 2018, by Chris Sale and the Red Sox.
