Cam Schlittler sets Yankees franchise record during Cy Young campaign

New York Yankees pitcher Cam Schlittler established a franchise record on Wednesday by recording his 19th start of the season allowing one or fewer earned runs. The achievement came during an eight-inning outing against the Los Angeles Angels in which he surrendered only one earned run. Schlittler holds a 2.04 ERA through 29 starts, which currently leads the American League. As the frontrunner for the American League Cy Young Award, he has struck out over 200 batters this year. He has allowed two or fewer earned runs in 23 of his 29 appearances. The Yankees organization expects Schlittler to serve as their starting pitcher for Game 1 of the postseason, anchoring a rotation that includes Gerrit Cole, Max Fried, and Carlos Rodón.
