 The second half of the big league season started Friday. A perfect balance of offense and pitching on display in the Bronx as the Yankees routed the Rays in the series opener. Garrett Cole, eight punch-outs. He's three and one, and Juan Soto is four for four. The Marlins' Jake Berger feasted on Mets pitching in South Beach. A double, a home run. He drove in a pair. Marlins win.
