Yankees make big changes to batting order ahead of Tampa Bay series

The New York Yankees have lost four of their last five games, recently being swept by the Detroit Tigers over the weekend.

However, ahead of the Tampa series on Monday, skipper Aaron Boone decided to make a few interesting changes.
