The Yankees’ schedule over the coming month is a gauntlet. Given the chance, a series win against the first-place Orioles is a pretty critical first step of gaining ground during a stretch that also has them seeing Tampa Bay, Houston, Atlanta, and Boston before August 20th. One game is one game, but there’s a fair amount on the line as Luis Severino takes the ball on Sunday Night Baseball trying to make it three consecutive solid starts. The Yankees can pick up a game on the Blue Jays, who fell to the Angels 3-2 in extras earlier today and are now three up on them and two on the Red Sox in the Wild Card standings.
