When Clarke Schmidt checked to see who he\u2019d pitch against after getting scratched from his start Saturday and bumped to Tuesday, he first saw a TBD next to the Padres. <\/p>\n
But then Michael King, who climbed the minors at the same time before they filled roles on the Yankees pitching staff, texted him.<\/p>\n
\u201cYou just wanted to face me,\u201d Schmidt recalled King writing, so he responded, \u201cI guess I got to lock in a little bit more now.\u201d<\/p>\n
For six innings Tuesday, the pair dueled. King allowed just two runs while pitching in The Bronx for the first time since the Yankees shipped the converted reliever to San Diego two winters ago for \u2014 essentially \u2014 one year of Juan Soto. <\/p>\n
Schmidt, the arm the Yankees have held onto, surrendered a pair of runs, too, after his start was delayed out of precaution due to side soreness.<\/p>\n
Until the Padres bullpen imploded in the Yankees\u2019 12-3 win, King was positioned to earn a win, but Schmidt earned the final bragging rights on a night when both settled for no-decisions.<\/p>\n
\u201cThere\u2019ll be a little bit of chirping,\u201d Schmidt said. \u201cI\u2019m sure we\u2019ll text each other after this. How can you not talk a little s\u2013t?\u201d<\/p>\n
Even before the emotions of making his first start back at Yankee Stadium kicked in, King knew his biggest challenge. Aaron Judge, he said Monday, is \u2014 and always will be \u2014 \u201cinsane.\u201d He induced a fly out from Judge on a 3-0 count in the first inning, but three frames later, King left a 2-2 fastball down the middle to \u201cthe best hitter in baseball,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019m not expecting to get that one back,\u201d King added of the solo homer.<\/p>\n
King felt like he had \u201cnothing\u201d working beyond his sweeper. His mechanics were off. But after Ben Rice doubled in the first inning, King went nine consecutive batters without allowing a hit.<\/p>\n
Then, Judge\u2019s homer, which barely cleared the fence in right, started to shift the tenor of his outing. King walked Cody Bellinger, and when Jasson Dom\u00ednguez\u2019s single paired with a throwing error, it allowed Bellinger to score from first and tie the game. He didn\u2019t allow another hit, though, and provided San Diego length against a Yankees group desperately needing that from its own staff.<\/p>\n
\u201cI was thinking there was gonna be a chance I started walking to the other dugout,\u201d King, whose ERA now sits at 2.22, said, \u201cbut I didn\u2019t do that. So that was a win. But I mean, it\u2019s fun. It\u2019s always a fun stadium to play in.\u201d<\/p>\n
The last time King pitched at Yankee Stadium, he flashed the transition\u2019s potential with seven dazzling innings during a September 2023 outing against the Blue Jays. That stretch provided evidence that his shift could work after all. And 20 months later, against one of his friends and former teammates, King showcased the finished product.<\/p>\n
\u201cHopefully somewhere down the line we can reunite,\u201d Schmidt said. \u201c\u2026 It\u2019s kinda like playing one of your brothers in the backyard.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
