The second half did not get off to the best of starts yesterday for the Yankees. In a doubleheader in Houston, the Yankees dropped both games to the Astros, in turn losing the season series to one of their biggest foes. Tonight, they’ll look to bounce back from that and get something as they head to Baltimore.
The last time the Yankees faced the Orioles, things went okay, when they took two of three at Yankee Stadium. Plus, a week before that, they had won three of four in Baltimore. However since then, the Orioles have come alive, going 28-19 and getting on the fringes of the playoff race.
