Gabriel Hughes and Cam Schlittler face off in Yankees and Rockies series

The Colorado Rockies visit the New York Yankees for a three-game series beginning today at 5:05 p.m. MT in the Bronx. Colorado pitcher Gabriel Hughes takes the mound, still seeking his first win of the season after a recent outing where he allowed one run in 4.2 innings. He faces Yankees right-hander Cam Schlittler, who enters the game with a 12-6 record and a 2.04 ERA over 29 starts. The Rockies currently sit 19 games away from finishing the season and must win at least eight of those contests to avoid a fourth consecutive 100-loss year. The series marks a return to New York for Rockies rookie TJ Rumfield, who faces the organization that previously traded him. After this series, the Rockies travel to Detroit to begin a three-game weekend set against the Tigers.
