May 24, 2025; Denver, Colorado, USA; New York Yankees starting pitcher Max Fried (54) in the first inning against the Colorado Rockies at Coors Field. Mandatory Credit: Ron Chenoy-Imagn Images Max Fried was unbeatable for nearly two months into his first season with the New York Yankees until running into the Los Angeles Dodgers at Dodger Stadium.
Coming off his first defeat of the season, Fried aims to start another winning streak Thursday night when the Yankees host the Cleveland Guardians.
The Yankees are attempting to win a series for the eighth time in nine tries after being held to five hits in Wednesday’s 4-0 loss. Aaron Judge had two singles as the Yankees were blanked for the second time this season.
“We just didn’t have a great night,” Yankees manager Aaron Boone said. “It happens.”
Fried (7-1, 1.92 ERA) allowed two earned runs or fewer in his first 11 starts until Friday’s 8-5 loss to the Dodgers. Facing the defending World Champions, Fried was tagged for six runs on eight hits, including two homers in five innings.
“Mostly, it was just execution, leaving balls in the middle of the plate,” Fried said. “I wasn’t going to the locations I wanted to, and when you’re facing a good team with good hitters, they’re going to make you pay for it.”
Fried allowed homers to Shohei Ohtani and Andy Pages in a game where the Yankees held a 5-2 lead before facing four hitters in a four-run sixth.
“The fact that we had a lead and I gave it up … it’s not going to sit well with me,” Fried said. “But you’ve got to be able to use this as motivation to go out next time and make sure it doesn’t happen again.”
Fried is making his second career start against the Guardians. On April 21, 2019 in Atlanta’s 11-5 win, the left-hander allowed two runs on seven hits in 6 1/3 innings.
Cleveland is trying to win the season series from the Yankees for the first time since 2021 after scoring three runs in the first inning and turning three double plays Wednesday.
Angel Martinez, who is 7-for-45 over his past 11 games, hit a two-run homer following a walk to Steven Kwan. Daniel Schneemann added an RBI double as part of a three-hit night and is 7-for-32 in his past 11 contests.
“When we can jump on the starter, that’s when we’re at our best,” Cleveland manager Stephen Vogt said. “That’s any team. Anytime you can take the lead early, it’s nice.”
Jose Ramirez doubled to extend his on-base streak to 30 games and also started two of Cleveland’s double plays. Ramirez is hitting .390 (46-for-118) during his on-base streak, which is two shy of his career high set in 2018.
“He’s one of the best players on the planet,” Vogt said about Ramirez.
Carlos Santana also singled to extend his hitting streak to 13 games. Santana is hitting .413 (19-for-46) during his hitting streak.
Slade Cecconi (1-1, 5.28) makes his fourth start since entering Cleveland’s rotation. Acquired from the Arizona Diamondbacks in December for Josh Naylor, Cecconi had the worst of those outings when he allowed five runs on seven hits in 4 1/3 innings during a no-decision Saturday against the Los Angeles Angels.
Cecconi’s lone career appearance against the Yankees occurred Sept. 22, 2023 in New York when he pitched 2 2/3 innings in relief and allowed a home run to Judge.

NCAA’s House settlement approved, ushering in new era where schools can directly pay athletes
College athletics is officially entering a new world.A California judge on Friday granted approval to the NCAA’s landmark settlement of three antitrust cases, often referred to as the “House settlement,” ushering in an era where schools are permitted to share revenue with athletes within a new enforcement structure led by the SEC, Big Ten, Big 12 and ACC.AdvertisementAdvertisementAdvertisementClaudia Wilken, the 75-year-old presiding judge in California’s Northern District, granted approval of an agreement between the named defendants (the NCAA and power conferences) and the plaintiffs (dozens of suing athletes) to settle three consolidated cases, all of them seeking more compensation for athletes.Unsuccessful in so many legal battles recently — most notably a 9-0 loss in a 2021 Supreme Court decision — the NCAA and its richest, most influential conferences decided last spring to strike a revolutionary agreement by settling these cases […]
Lesão deve tirar Dembélé de campo contra Botafogo no Mundial de Clubes, mas PSG tem opções
Dembélé em ação pelo PSG. (Foto: Instagram / @o.dembele7) O PSG recebeu uma má notícia nesta sexta-feira (6) após a Seleção Francesa constatar lesão em Dembélé, que saiu machucado do duelo contra a Espanha. Com isso, o ponta-direita precisará se recuperar, e já retornou ao CT do Paris para fazer todo o processo. Ele só poderá estar apto para jogo daqui a 2 ou 3 semanas, o que poder tirá-lo da partida contra o Botafogo pelo Mundial de Clubes. Primeiramente, a Seleção Francesa já confirmou a ausência de Dembélé do jogo contra a Alemanha na decisão de 3º lugar da Nations League neste fim de semana. Além disso, os exames mostraram que será necessário um tempo estimado em 2 ou 3 semanas para recuperação total. Assim, pode-se confirmar que o atacante não poderá enfrentar o Atlético de Madrid, na estreia, […]
NBA Finals ratings: Pacers-Thunder thriller posts worst Game 1 numbers since league’s COVID-19 downturn
The concerns about the small-market NBA Finals didn't prevent the Indiana Pacers and Oklahoma City Thunder from delivering a classic in Game 1.

Botafogo recusa proposta de R$ 57 milhões do Brighton por Cuiabano; clube crê em valorização pós-Mundial
O Botafogo recusou nesta sexta-feira mais uma proposta do Brighton por Cuiabano. Dessa vez, o clube inglês ofereceu nove milhões de euros (aproximadamente R$ 57 milhões) para comprar o lateral-esquerdo de 22 anos. Foi a terceira proposta da equipe britânica pelo defensor. Há dois motivos pela recusa: o primeiro é que, nos bastidores, o Botafogo entende que o valor de mercado de Cuiabano gira em torno de 10 a 12 milhões de euros, ou seja, entre R$ 64 milhões e R$ 76 milhões. Além disso, o clube carioca entende que o lateral pode se valorizar ainda mais após o Mundial de Clubes. Antes, o Botafogo já havia recusado duas propostas do Brighton por Cuiabano: uma que totalizava R$ 44 milhões, entre valores fixos e bônus, e outra de R$ 51 milhões. Como resposta, o clube inglês avalia a possibilidade de […]
