Joey Ortiz, Brewers seek another win vs. Yankees

The surging Milwaukee Brewers will turn to right-hander Joe Ross in an effort to keep their momentum going when they host the New York Yankees on Saturday night in the middle game of the weekend series. Ross (1-2, 4.05 ERA) will be opposed by left-hander Carlos Rodon (1-1, 2.70) for the Yankees, who have lost seven of 12 games after starting the season 12-3. Milwaukee rallied to win the series opener 7-6 on Friday night on Joey Ortiz's walk-off single in the 11th inning after the Yankees failed to score in the top half. Ortiz, acquired from Baltimore in a February trade for pitcher Corbin Burnes, also hit his first career homer, a two-run shot in the second.
