The Tampa Bay Rays salvaged the final two games of a four-game series against the New York Yankees to ensure a split and not fall further behind in the American League East standings. The matchup was one you would expect from teams that focused on run prevention.
The Yankees remain 4.5 games ahead of the Rays. The Toronto Blue Jays have climbed to 5.5 games back while the Boston Red Sox and Baltimore Orioles bring up the rear sitting at 10.0 and 13.5 games back respectively.
