The New York Yankees have answered a brutal six-game skid with an improbable five-game winning streak. And Carlos Rodon responded to his worst outing of the season \u2013 an ugly loss to the New York Mets on July 5 \u2013 with his best start of the campaign against the Chicago Cubs Friday.<\/p>\n

Rodon shut down a potent Cubs offense in the Yankees\u2019 11-0 win. He allowed four hits and one walk while striking out eight in eight scoreless innings. Only two runners reached second base against Rodon in a command performance.<\/p>\n

And manager Aaron Boone appreciated the veteran starter\u2019s outing. \u201cJust really a dominant performance against a really good offense. So, it was really good to see that,\u201d Boone said of Rodon per SNY Yankees Videos. \u201cI liked that he had a presence, too. Especially with a lot of their righties, getting that fastball in, I think, helped everything else out too,\u201d Boone added.<\/p>\n

While Rodon led the way against Chicago, he had plenty of help. Cody Bellinger had a monster game against his former team. The Yankees center fielder went 3-5 with three home runs and six RBI Friday, reminding fans of his 2019 MVP form.<\/p>\n

And Aaron Judge dominated defensively for the Yankees. The reigning MVP added to his highlight reel with three web gems. Judge robbed Pete Crow-Armstrong of a home run, stole a single from Dansby Swanson and saved two runs with a diving catch on a Kyle Tucker liner.<\/p>\n

A day after completing an epic Yankees comeback with an extra-inning walk-off RBI against the Seattle Mariners, Judge kept the Cubs off the board with his excellent defensive work.<\/p>\n

But in the end, Rodon deserves the credit for delivering against a dangerous Chicago team. He\u2019s now 10-6 with a 3.08 ERA, 1.00 WHIP, 2.2 bWAR and 135 strikeouts in 119 2\/3 innings over 20 starts. The performance earned him an All-Star Game nod, the third of his career.<\/p>\n

\u201cSharp is the word I would use. Obviously he\u2019s had a really good first half for us\u2026 but that was obviously right up there. I thought he was just so efficient,\u201d Boone said after Rodon got through eight innings on 109 pitches.<\/p>\n

The Yankees are relying on Rodon and Max Fried more than ever after losing Clarke Schmidt to season-ending Tommy John surgery. The rotation has already lost Gerrit Cole for the year and Luis Gil has yet to pitch in 2025.<\/p>\n<\/article>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
