Rookie starter Cam Schlittler lost his bid for a perfect game in the seventh inning against the Rays, on a night when the Yankees stumbled late but still rallied to a 10-inning victory.

Rookie right-hander Cam Schlittler was the Yankees' starter against the Rays on Wednesday night at Steinbrenner Field in Tampa.

Tampa Bay Rays right fielder Josh Lowe is expected back Wednesday vs. the New York Yankees after missing three games with right oblique tightness.

Cam Schlittler was throwing a perfect game through six innings Wednesday night, the longest bid by a New York Yankees rookie in nearly 60 years. The 24-year-old right-hander retired the first 18 Rays he faced before Chandler Simpson led off the seventh with a single to right.

Schlittler struck out Simpson, the Rays' leadoff man, looking at a 97-mph fastball on the inside corner to start a 1-2-3, 11-pitch bottom half and he made it six-up, six-down with an 11-pitch second, striking out Feduccia swinging at a 99-mph fastball to end the inning. Schlittler was at just 66 pitches through six.

Armed with high-90s heat and a hammering curveball, as well as efficiency, the Yankees’ rookie retired the first 18 batters he faced.

As they await an official diagnosis, the Yankees are holding back from publicly acknowledging what Jonathan Loáisiga’s latest injury means for him.

Stanton helped the Yankees to a 6-4 win over the Tampa Bay Rays on Wednesday night. "He was locked in, dialed in," Aaron Judge said.

According to a post made by the team on X, the social media platform previously known as Twitter, the Yankees are the first team in MLB history to record two games in one season with nine home runs. The first game, which occurred at the beginning of the season against the Milwaukee Brewers, ended in the Pinstripes' favor with a whopping 20-9 score.
