The New York Yankees are fresh off their makeup game with
the Kansas City Royals yesterday afternoon and are now the team is set to begin
a three-game series with the Tampa Bay Rays. The Rays hung around for much of
the 2017 season both in the AL East Division race and the Wild Card chases but
the team lacked the longevity in the races falling just short in both. Now the
Rays are reduced to playing spoiler against the Yankees who still have a
mathematical chance at hunting down the Boston Red Sox in the American League
East Division race, and no one likes a spoiler. In the matchup this afternoon
the Yankees will send Jordan Montgomery to the mound to face off with Blake Snell
for the Rays.
Snell was especially sharp in his last start against the
Chicago Cubs allowing no runs in seven innings of work in a Tampa Bay victory.
Snell has given the Rays seven innings in three of his last six starts compared
to the one start in his MLB career prior that he reached at least seven innings
over the course of 35 starts.
The game will be played at 7:05 pm ET inside Yankee Stadium
and can be seen on the YES Network, Fox Sports Sun and MLB TV. You can also
follow along with the playoff-bound Yankees in your cars and on the radio by
tuning into the WFAN broadcast with John Sterling and Suzyn Waldman. Enjoy the
game!! Need a win, don’t take your foot off the gas, so get a win. Go
Yankees!!!
