https://t.co/O950gvpQmM What the Yankees are bad at (scoring runs) has left no margin of error for what they are good at Via @Joelsherman1 on X

What happened: New York's ability to prevent runs is compensating for its trouble scoring them.

Why it matters: The narrow cushion leaves little room for mistakes and could carry a cost if the offense remains quiet.

By the numbers: The Yankees lead 1-0.

What to watch: Watch whether New York can add insurance while continuing to keep runs off the board.
