The Yankees know who they will face in the American League Wild Card Game (Oakland A's).
The Yankees know when they'll take the field for MLB playoffs (Wednesday, Oct. 3).
Pretty soon, the Yankees will know where their postseason run will begin.
The #Yankees magic number now is just 2 to assure that their wild-card game next Wednesday against the Oakland A's is at Yankee Stadium.

Any combination of Yankees wins and A's losses between now and the end of the regular season which totals two will give the Yankees home-field advantage for the wild card.
