Can the Yankees play the Twins every day? Pretty please? The Yankees opened this three-game series in Minnesota with a 7-2 win Monday night. Including the 2017 AL Wild Card Game, the Yankees have won their last nine games against the Twins, outscoring them 66-23. Love those Twins.

Andrew McCutchen (walk) and Aaron Hicks (single) reached base to start the first inning, then a Miguel Andujar double play and a Giancarlo Stanton strikeout followed.
