“Schlittler started and took the loss when the Yankees’ season ended in Game 4 of the ALDS, allowing four runs — with two earned — on eight hits across 6 ¹/₃ innings.”
DISPUTED
While the Yankees did lose Game 4 of the ALDS 5-2, the evidence from the web search explicitly states that Toronto won the game by 'throwing a bullpen game against Cam Schlittler,' which contradicts the claim that Schlittler started and pitched 6 1/3 innings.
