The Orioles and Yankees hold two of the better records in baseball, but they have yet to completely bury the Red Sox. Baltimore will host Boston this weekend and attempt to extend the distance between the first two spots and third place in the AL East.
A division crown may seem unlikely, but the Sox still hold a legitimate chance at a playoff berth. Boston currently sits just outside of the third Wild Card spot trailing the AL East runner up, the Twins and the Royals.
Rafael Devers continues to anchor the division foe.
