• Karns will be appearing a regular-season game for the first time since May 19, 2017, having spent the rest of that year and all of 2018 recovering from an elbow injury. He struck out 152 batters in 139 2/3 innings over his last two seasons in the majors. The 31-year-old Texas Tech product is 2-0 with a 2.70 ERA in five career starts against the Yankees.

• Paxton gave up four runs in five innings while losing his only prior Yankee Stadium start, which came last season. He is 2-0 with a 3.71 ERA in three career starts against the Orioles, including one matchup in Camden Yards last year when he fanned 10 batters in seven strong innings. The 30-year-old was 3-0 with a 2.08 mark in five spring training starts.

• RF Aaron Judge, LF Giancarlo Stanton and Voit – the Yankees’ 2-4 hitters on Opening Day – combined to go 4-for-7 with six walks and a hit-by-pitch.
