2000 Yankees Diary, June 18: El Duque obliterated by White Sox
"Hernández's outing was historically poor, allowing nine runs in just two-thirds of an inning, marking it as one of the worst starts in Yankees history."
"On this infamous day, El Duque faced a lineup that quickly exploited his struggles, resulting in a grand slam that epitomized a catastrophic performance."
On June 15, 1998, Yankees pitcher Orlando Hernández had one of the worst starts in franchise history during a game against the White Sox. Despite an initial solid start, everything collapsed rapidly. After allowing a walk and several hits, including a grand slam, Hernández ended up with a staggering nine runs allowed over just 0.2 innings pitched. His Game Score of 2 ties him for the 11th worst in Yankees history, highlighting how memorable poor performances can be, even in less significant games.
