NEW YORK — Anthony Volpe went 0 for 2 with a walk, stolen base and two nice defensive plays in his major league debut, a 5-0 opening-day win over the San Francisco Giants. Aaron Judge followed his record-setting 2022 by homering on his first swing as Yankees captain, a drive off Logan Webb, and Gerrit Cole struck out 11 in six scoreless innings Gleyber Torres added a two-run, opposite-field homer to right in the fourth and Judge blooped an RBI broken-bat single in a two-run seventh that included DJ LeMahieu's run-scoring single.
