This is as big as a mid-June series gets. The Orioles and Yankees are the top two teams in not only the American League East, but the junior circuit at large. And if you dig into the numbers enough, you can pretty easily make an argument for these being the finest offenses and pitching staffs in the entire sport. There’s still plenty of season to go from here, but what happens at Yankee Stadium this week will, at the very least, have a big impact on vibes in the immediate future.
You will note that this is not the first time that these teams will face off this season.
