Due to extenuating circumstances, all three editors are tag-teaming the Rivalry Roundup this morning. Thanks for bearing with us!
Here’s how the Yankees’ top American League opponents fared on Tuesday night.
Philadelphia Phillies (54-47) 4, Baltimore Orioles (62-39) 3

The Orioles popped open a 2-0 lead midway through the third inning after RBI doubles from Austin Hays and Adam Frazier, but the Phillies got one back in the bottom of the third when they chained three straight hits off of Kyle Gibson.
