\n Aaron Boone wasn\u2019t shy about Friday night\u2019s intrasquad game<\/a> being the opener of four \u201creal\u2019\u2019 games in front of the Yankees\u2019 Opening Day gig in Washington on Thursday.<\/p>\n

The final intrasquad game of spring training 2.0 was played before the Yankees travel<\/a>ed to Citi Field and topped the Mets, 9-3, on Saturday night. They play host to the Mets at Yankee Stadium on Sunday evening and will play the Phillies in The Bronx on Monday night.<\/p>\n

So, it was clear that starters were not going to play four straight games, and Boone left Aaron Judge, Aaron Hicks, Gary Sanchez, Brett Gardner and Luke Voit at the Stadium to work out.<\/p>\n

\u201cIn my head I am looking at [Friday] night\u2019s game was a game for us,\u2019\u2019 Boone said. \u201cFour days where most of our guys will play three out of four. A couple might play in all four but for the most part looking at three out of four so those were the guys [Saturday].\u2019\u2019<\/p>\n

Masahiro Tanaka is slated to throw a second bullpen session on Sunday at Yankee Stadium. If that goes well the right-hander will upgrade to facing live hitters next week. That would be the first time Tanaka will pitch to a batter since Giancarlo Stanton\u2019s 112 mph line drive hit the right-hander in the head on July 4 and caused a concussion. <\/p>\n

Boone didn\u2019t have an update about Luis Cessa and Aroldis Chapman, who are quarantining away from the club due to COVID-19.<\/p>\n

\n<\/hr>\n

Boone used the exhibition game to bring Miguel Andujar from left field to the shortstop side of second base in the fifth inning to provide Zack Britton with five infielders while pitching to pitch to Tomas Nido with one out. Nido then dumped a single into right.<\/p>\n

\u201cI think it makes a lot of sense depending on the situation and the hitter that is up there,\u2019\u2019 said Britton, who worked an intrasquad game with the same alignment.<\/p>\n

\n<\/hr>\n

Jordan Montgomery starts against the Mets on Sunday night and Deivi Garcia opens versus the Phillies on Monday evening.<\/p>\n

\n<\/hr>\n

Gio Urshela went down during batting practice when hit in the groin. He was attended to by trainer Steve Donohue on the field and walked off. However, Urshela was in the lineup and made several slick plays at third base. After the game Boone said Urshela was OK.<\/p>\n

\n<\/hr>\n

Boone said it was good to experience what life on the road is in the new environment.<\/p>\n

\u201cI thought by and large it went really well,\u2019\u2019 he said. \u201cIt was easy to get our work in.\u2019\u2019<\/p>\n

After two weeks of facing their own pitchers in live batting practice or simulated games, seeing a hurler in a different uniform is a big step toward preparing for Opening Day on Thursday at Washington.<\/p>\n

\u201cThat is going to help us get ready,\u2019\u2019 Urshela said about facing an opposing pitcher.<\/p>\n

\n<\/hr>\n

Asked what the bus ride from The Bronx to Queens was like, Urshela said he drove himself. Boone also drove with bench coach Carlos Mendoza.<\/p>\n

\n<\/hr>\n

Asked about spring training 2.0 injuries, Boone said shortstop prospect Kyle Holder was checked out for a hip\/stomach issue Friday night. Other than that the manager couldn\u2019t think of another injury.\n <\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
