Yankees' Clarke Schmidt has strong message to Aaron Boone after longest start of career
One of the more exciting aspects of the current New York Yankees campaign has been the hot start of starting pitcher Clarke Schmidt who just logged in another impressive effort in the shutout win against the Tamps Bay Rays Friday, 2-0. Schmidt along with Yankees manager Aaron Booner spoke about the 28-year old's development and what is to come this season for the young pitcher. Schmidt struck out six batters and allowed five hits, two walks, but didn't let go of a run, but the one statistic that stands out the most to him is that he went 6.2 innings, tying the longest in his career. It has been known that Schmidt has been wanting to go deeper into games as he even said after the contest that he wants to further gain the trust of Boone according to Gary Phillips of The New York Daily News.
