Seattle left-hander Yusei Kikuchi (7-6, 3.89 ERA) has made one start against the Yankees in 2021. It was pretty much a disaster, with five runs allowed on eight hits and three walks over five innings on the mound. Yankees' righty Luis Gil (1-0, 0.00 ERA) has made only one career start, but it was a solid one as he allowed just four hits and one walk while striking out six batters across six scoreless frames to earn a win against Baltimore earlier this month.

8* play on New York Yankees.
