Yankees' Will Warren: Goes 5.1 innings in debut
Warren did not factor into the decision Tuesday against the Phillies, allowing four runs on four hits and two walks over 5.1 innings. He struck out six.

Warren figures to head back to Triple-A with Gerrit Cole (general fatigue) expected to return this weekend, though he should be on the short list of potential call-ups should the Yankees need pitching reinforcements down the stretch.
