Pinstriped Performances: Monday, June 17, 2019

On Monday, only three teams were in actions in the New York Yankees organization and only two of the games were completed. Staten Island took another close loss, but got a great start from their starter, who was on a rehab assignment. Meanwhile, Tampa’s offense got their second half off to a strong start before the rain came in and one young prospect made his organizational debut in the Dominican Summer League.
