Ben Blumenthal was one of the hitting stars in the GCL Yankees 6-1 win over the GCL Indians.  He was a perfect four for four with a double, a run and an RBI.  Melky Mesa went two for four with a double and two runs.

Wilkins De La Rosa picked up the win and he improved to 1-0 on the season.  He gave up a hit and he struck out four in two shutout innings of relief.

Noel Castillo had a mixed relief appearance.  He did take the loss and he dropped to 2-2 but two of the four runs he gave up were unearned.  And to his credit, he struck out an impressive six batters in just 3 2/3 innings.

Both Yankee runs came on solo homeruns in the 6-2 loss.  Jesus Montero and Ben Blumenthal both hit one over the fence with nobody on base.
