ANAHEIM, Calif. — Two Yankees catchers have made their first major league appearances behind home plate.
Jesus Montero, a 21-year-old who made his major league debut on Sept. 1, started at catcher against the Los Angeles Angels on Sunday. He was replaced in the seventh inning by 22-year-old Austin Romine, who had never before played in the big leagues.
Francisco Cervelli has been sidelined by concussion-like symptoms since a home plate collision with Baltimore’s Nick Markakis on Thursday, and Russell Martin left Saturday night’s game because of a bruised right thumb sustained on a third-inning foul tip.
