After getting in the win column for the first time of the season last night, the Yankees will be back at it tonight trying to start their first winning streak. Big Michael Pineda will be on the mound, as the enigmatic right-hander looks to get his 2017 campaign off to a quality start.

Opposing Pineda is Alex Cobb, who is coming off a season in which he pitched just 22 innings with an 8.59 ERA. With any luck, the Yankees could have a series win to start of the year. The game starts at 7:10 EST and will be broadcast on Fox Sports 1.
