Pinstriped Performances: Friday, August 3, 2018

Due to two postponements in the New York Yankees organization on Friday, there were only seven games played and the teams combined for a 2-5 record. Two teams in the organization had three hits or fewer. Meanwhile, Trenton used three relievers to win a close game and a Tampa outfielder eclipsed 20 stolen bases for the season.
