Yankees 2, Orioles 5: Matt Wieters hits two home runs, sends the Yankees home for the winter

The 2016 season came to an end for the New York Yankees on Sunday afternoon. So too did Mark Teixeira’s career. Unfortunately they couldn’t pick up a win. They finish the season with an 84 - 78 record. It’s been a wild one.

From the outset of the game, the Orioles seemed determined to avoid a potential Wild Card three-way tie. Their offense struck first in the top half of the third inning. Jonathan Schoop greeted Luis Cessa with a lead-off with a ground rule double. He then advanced to third on a ground ball to Cessa off of the bat of Hyun-soo Kim.
