Yankees pitcher Marcus Stroman, who was placed on the injured list Saturday, had a cortisone shot to treat swelling in his inflamed left knee.

NEW YORK — After Yankees pitcher Marcus Stroman complained of discomfort in his left knee Friday night, he received a cortisone shot and the MRI came back clean. “Hopefully get him ramped up pretty quick and it’s something that helps him moving forward,” Manager Aaron Boone said before Sunday’s game.

New York Yankees pitcher Marcus Stroman went to a hospital for tests on his left knee after he gave up five runs before getting chased in the first inning of a 9-1 loss to the San Francisco Giants on a cold and rainy night.
