Nestor Cortes had this to say about his pitching performance!

“Once the adrenaline is running, you feel like you’re invincible,”When I went out there for the ninth and all those fans were cheering, I had goosebumps going out there, for sure. It was pretty cool.”

New York manager Aaron Boone had this to say about Nestor Cortes start!

Cortes wobbled a bit in the first inning, permitting a couple of hits, then never seemed to overpower Tampa Bay -- he just got outs, plenty of them.

Though, he wasn’t the only one comment on Nestor Cortes start as his teammate right fielder Aaron Judge did as well! What did he say?

It’s special. It’s fun to watch,He competes; he goes out there, and he’s not afraid of anybody in the lineup. You’ve got to like that. It’s fun to play behind.”
