Gerrit Cole flashes heat during eventful inning in Yankees spring debut

Fonte: New York Post

TAMPA — It was only a Grapefruit League exhibition, and only 10 pitches in one inning. But 53 weeks after undergoing Tommy John surgery, Gerrit Cole returned to the mound for his first game action on Wednesday afternoon at Steinbrenner Field, checking off another significant box in his comeback toward potentially rejoining the Yankees by May. Cole looked as sharp as one can while only throwing 10 pitches — he was set to head down to the bullpen afterward to throw about 20 more — flashing some life on his fastball, which topped out at 98.
