Merrill Kelly Gets Lit Up By Yankees

Arizona Diamondbacks starting pitcher Merrill Kelly got hit hard by the Yankees in a 7-9 loss on Thursday, allowing nine runs on nine hits and three walks in 3 ⅔ innings. It hasn't been a great start to 2025 for the veteran, who has looked shaky in both outings so far. In his first start […]

Arizona Diamondbacks starting pitcher Zac Gallen looked untouchable on Wednesday, striking out 13 batters over 6 ⅔ shutout innings in a 4-3 win against the Yankees.
