After their second doubleheader in as many days that actually featured baseball, the Yankees are heading out of Fenway with a three-of-four series win. That type of decisive win in mid-September would normally be a massive dopamine spike for the playoff chase, but well, the Yankees are far out of it and they’ve only dragged the Sox down with them. Sorry Boston ... okay, not really.
Instead the team is marching along as the final weeks of the year fade, and a trip to Pittsburgh is next on the docket. Before the series gets underway Jeff has a look at the AL field and what they did last night (look away Jays supporters), Matt has the series preview with pitching matchups, and Peter checks in with the latest 1998 diary.
