<h2>Thursday's Pitching Match-Up </h2>
<p><a class="advblue" href="https://www.sportsbettingstats.com/mlb/pitcherlog/99108&quot; title="Domingo German Pitching Game Stats">German</a> is 4/13 on quality starts this season and two for his last three. Last Friday, he got touched for seven runs and seven hits through only two-plus innings in a 15-5 New York loss to Boston. But over his two starts previous to that, he allowed just two runs and ten hits through 12 2/3 innings in a pair of Yankees wins.</p>
<p>New York is 7-6 with German this season, 4-1 his last five times out.</p>
