Yankees Backing Into Playoffs

ByEdward Pizzarello

Despite losing 6 of their last 10 games, the Yankees still hold a half game lead in the AL East.  With 13 games left, there are essentially 6 teams fighting for 4 spots.  Boston and Chicago are on the outside, looking in.  They essentially need a miracle.

But, with how badly the Yankees have played on the road this year, our biggest challenge now is locking up home field advantage.

The Yankees kick off a 4-game series against the Rays in the Bronx on Monday.  Since the Rays have a pretty easy schedule after this, this series will most likely decide who gets the pivotal game 7 (or game 5) in their home stadium.

My goal in life is to fill my family’s passports with stamps, creating buckets of memories along the way. You’ll find me writing about realistic ways for normal people to travel the world, whether you’re on a budget or enjoy luxury. I also enjoy taking us on the occasional detour to explore the inner workings of the travel industry.
