DotF: Loaisiga and King dominate again in wins

Two injury notes to pass along:

SS Thairo Estrada has been placed on the Triple-A Scranton disabled list, the team announced. Not sure what’s wrong with him, but he was dealing with a groin issue a week or two ago.. Could be that again. Or it could be the whole “he got shot in the hip over the winter” thing too.
RHP Freicer Perez was placed on the High-A Tampa disabled list, the team announced. Not sure what’s wrong with him either. Perez has struggled this year, pitching to a 7.20 ERA (6.01 FIP) with 16.3% strikeouts and 15.5% walks in 25 innings.

DH Adam Lind: 3-4, 2 R, 1 2B, 1 RBI, 1 BB — I doubt it happens, but it would be rad if he stuck around all year, and the Yankees could carry him as an extra bench bat in September and (potentially) October
C Kyle Higashioka: 2-5, 1 R, 1 RBI, 1 K
RHP Chance Adams: 2.2 IP, 7 H, 5 R, 5 ER, 1 BB, 2 K, 1 HB, 2/2 GB/FB — 45 of 70 pitches were strikes (64%) … third time in seven starts this season he’s allowed at least four runs … he allowed four runs only twice in 27 starts last year

CF Trey Amburgey: 1-4, 2 RBI
