Yankees pitcher Domingo Germán's rosin pitch-hand troubles lead to promise of correction

  • Germán says he plans to use less rosin moving forward after his recent suspension for applying foreign substances to baseballs.
  • Germán received a 10-game suspension after being ejected from a game against the Blue Jays for putting rosin on his hands.
  • MLB has been cracking down on pitchers using foreign substances since June 2021; Germán is the fourth pitcher suspended so far.
  • Germán remains unclear on how much rosin is allowed but hopes to find the right balance to avoid future discipline.
  • With a 3.75 ERA in nine starts, the righty has had a solid year for the Yankees and returns to the rotation Monday versus Seattle.
