At least someone other than the Miz is pitching tonight in Milwaukee.

The Yankees got absolutely rocked by Jacob Misiorowski last night. Pardon the language, but there’s no sugarcoating it—the kid was simply dominant. Shout-out to the Miz, who showed exactly why he’s emerging as one of the league’s top young arms. Once Max Fried found trouble on the mound, the writing was on the wall. Aside from José Caballero, who managed a few singles, the Yankees’ bats just couldn’t get anything going. It was one of those nights, and a tough welcome to the majors for Spencer Jones in his debut.

But hey, at least someone other than the Miz is pitching tonight in Milwaukee. Today on the site, we’re diving into some classic Yankees history. Nick takes a look back at the 1978 championship team’s rotation—the last staff to lead the league in ERA—as the current squad is on pace to do the same in 2026. Madison brings the Rivalry Roundup, Jeff celebrates the 42nd birthday of old friend Chase Headley, and Matt reflects on what the late John Sterling meant to him as a lifelong fan.

2. Which team in the league has impressed you the least so far this season?
