Rays' Drew Rasmussen shuts down Yankees in playoff opener
Original: Drew Rasmussen's Yankees mastery continues in Game 1. 'Dialed in' Rays ace looks untouchable https://www.nytimes.com/ath
Tampa Bay Rays pitcher Drew Rasmussen dominated the New York Yankees in Game 1 of the MLB playoffs, continuing his strong record against the club and at one point flirting with a no-hitter. Sportswriters described the right-hander as 'dialed in' and effectively untouchable, with his mastery of the Yankees' lineup becoming the main storyline from the game.
Why now: Rasmussen's dominant playoff performance against the Yankees is fresh news in the middle of the MLB postseason.
