Ivan Nova, that is. The young man had quite a good start a few days ago–so good, in fact, that team management decided to give him a second start this Sunday against the White Sox. Though the Yanks lost to Toronto, 3-2, Nova pitched well through 5 innings, giving up 6 hits and a couple of runs. He was also involved in a bench-clearing incident when he threw wildly over the head of Toronto’s heavy hitter, Jose Bautista, who’s leading the Majors in home runs with 41. Bautista had hit a 2-run blast against Nova his previous time at bat, but the pitch didn’t appear intentional. Bautista took a few steps toward the mound, yelling something to Ivan, but, after the benches cleared, cool heads prevailed and the game continued. With the Yankees’ starting pitching currently in tatters, here’s hoping that the young Dominican can turn in another good performance on Sunday.
