Yankees’ first loss of season still came with an encouraging win

Will Warren was good, touching even a little better than that in his 2025 debut.

At a time when the Yankees would take competence from Warren, that made his effort Tuesday night a win within the team’s first loss of 2025.

The good: Warren yielded just one hit and two runs in five innings. The bad: He threw Strike 1 to just five of the 19 hitters he faced and walked No. 9 batter Geraldo Perdomo on four pitches after retiring the first eight batters before leaving a changeup delectably up for Corbin Carroll to hammer for a third-inning homer.

Bad: Warren walked four in all. Good: He did not wilt. Arizona had one hit in eight at-bats with men on base off of the righty — the Carroll homer. Overall, Warren pitched well enough to position the Yankees to win. That they didn’t was not his fault.
