New York Yankees' Gerrit Cole takes the mound against the Detroit Tigers on the 31st and is spraying the ball vigorously.

Yankees Giancarlo Stanton hit a solo home run in the top of the fourth inning and is making a high five with his teammates. 

New York Yankees' Gerrit Cole crossed the ninth-division ridge toward his first Cy Young Award.

Cole started the away game against the Detroit Tigers at Comerica Park on the 31st and pitched well with four hits, two walks and two runs in six innings, leading to a 6-2 victory.

Cole, who added a multiplier in 23 days against the Tampa Bay Rays on the 26th, won two consecutive games and succeeded in 12 wins 4 losses of the season.

The ERA was 2.95, losing the top spot to Minnesota Twins' Sonny Gray, but maintained the top spot in the AL in starting appearances 28 games and pitching innings 174 innings. Gray threw three hits and no runs in seven innings against the Cleveland Guardians, drastically lowering his ERA from 3.06 to 2.92.

Cole also added seven strikeouts to jump to third place in the AL with 188 strikeouts. WHIP 1.04 is fourth and hit rate 0.214 is second. All indicators indicate that the leading candidate for the AL Cy Young Award is Cole.

Cole, who threw 92 balls and came down the mound, had a fastball speed of up to 97.6 miles and an average of 95.5 miles, 1.3 miles slower than usual, and his control was somewhat shaken. However, he avoided mass runs with excellent concentration.

Gerrit Cole is considered the most likely candidate for the American League Cy Young Award. 
Cole, who started pitching in the bottom of the first inning with a 2-0 lead, finished the inning with a clean three-way walkout, striking out leader Akil Badu to first base, Riley Green to left field fly ball, and Spencer Tokelson. In the second inning, Matt Bearling was sent off as an infield hit to shortstop after two outs, and Parker Meadows was caught on a fly to right field and passed without losing a point.

However, Cole allowed one run in the bottom of the third inning with a 4-0 lead. After one out, right-handed hitter Jake Rogers hit a right-center solo shot. His 95.4-mile fastball thrown outward for the second pitch led to a right-center home run with a batting speed of 101.4 miles and a 397-foot distance. Cole, who struck out Badu with a swing, then allowed Green to walk in a full count, but struck out Tokelson with an outside slider from a full count.

Kerry Carpenter, the leader in the fourth inning with a 6-1 lead, got on base with an infield hit, but Cole hit Jack McKinstry with a double play and a grounder to shortstop to pass the inning. Cole, who blocked the fifth inning with one walk and no runs, allowed one run again with a home run in the sixth inning. After one out, Tokelson threw a 95.5-mile fastball into the middle, leading to a solo shot that went far over the left fence. He hit two home runs on the same day, making 20 home runs this season.

However, Cole finished the inning by throwing Carpenter and McKinstry sliders and curves to the decisive ball, respectively, and striking out consecutive swings.

The Yankees took the lead with three home runs by Giancarlo Stanton, Gleyber Torres, and JD LeMayhew in the early stages. With 65 wins and 68 losses, the Yankees are still at the bottom of the AL East. The Yankees are likely to be the last in the world in 33 years since 1990 and the rouging season in 31 years since 1992, but they can comfort the production of Cy Young Award winners in 22 years since Roger Clemens in 2001.

Cole has yet to win a Cy Young Award. Cole, who made his major league debut with the Pittsburgh Pirates in 2013, emerged as an ace in 2015 with 19 wins and 8 losses, a 2.60 ERA, and 202 strikeouts, ranking fourth in the NL Cy Young Award voting.

Cole, who moved to the Houston Astros in 2018, had a career-high season so brilliant that he won the Cy Young Award in 2019. He posted 20 wins and 5 losses, a 2.50 ERA and 326 strikeouts, but remained in second place, only 12 points behind his teammate Justin Verlander. Although he was the first in the AL ERA and strikeouts, he failed to overcome Verlander's wall, who was the first in multiple wins 21 wins and pitching innings 223 innings. 사설토토

Later that year, Cole, who signed a nine-year, $324 million FA contract and wore a Yankees uniform, had to settle for second place in the AL Cy Young vote with 16 wins and 8 losses and a 3.23 ERA and 243 strikeouts in 2021. Toronto Blue Jays Robbie Ray 13 wins, 7 losses, 2.84, 248 strikeouts was so overwhelming.
