"Max Fried extended his scoreless streak to start the 2026 season to 13.1 innings after spinning seven shutout frames in Tuesday night's 5-0 victory over the Seattle Mariners. New York's three runs allowed are tied for the fewest across a team's first five games of a season with the 1943 St. Louis Cardinals."
"We have a lot of really talented guys who are really motivated we're leaving everything out there, Fried said. We're throwing the ball really well right now, so we're just trying to keep it rolling."
"Yankees manager Aaron Boone stated, I don't know if you draw up this many shutouts and all that early on. I don't care how good your pitching is. It doesn't usually work that seamlessly. It's a great start for those guys."
"Fried is the first Yankees starting pitcher to record 13 or more scoreless innings across his first two starts of a season since Mel Stottlemyer began the 1967 season with back-to-back complete-game shutouts."
Max Fried has begun the 2026 season with a remarkable 13.1 scoreless innings after a seven-inning shutout against the Seattle Mariners. The Yankees' pitching staff has allowed only three runs in their first five games, matching a record set by the 1943 St. Louis Cardinals. The team has recorded three shutouts, tying with several other teams for the most in that span. Fried's performance marks the first time a Yankees starter has achieved such a scoreless streak since 1967, showcasing the team's strong pitching depth and confidence.
