Showing dominance
The Yankees' performance in the Wild Card series was nothing short of dominant. Cam Schlittler pitched an outstanding Game 1 with 6.1 innings, allowing just two hits and 10 strikeouts. Ben Rice did most of the damage at the plate. He homered twice and had six RBI, including an eighth-inning grand slam.
In Game 2, Max Fried pitched a solid game in six innings, allowing three hits and one homer with a 1.50 ERA (1 ER). At bat, eight different players scored, with Luis Garcia and Cody Bellinger hitting home runs. Bellinger led the lineup with two hits, four RBI, and his three-run homer in the bottom of the sixth that broke the game open.
Moving on
Out of the Wild Card series, the Yankees are headed south for a Divisional Series with the Tampa Bay Rays. In Game 1, it’s the Rays who are slight 54% favorites to win while the Yankees have 46%. For the series, though, New York is favored at 52% to the Rays' 48%. If the Yankees make it out of the Divisional Series, they’ll face either the Chicago White Sox or Cleveland Guardians in the ALCS.
The Yankees and Rays tee off on Saturday at 6:30 p.m. EST from Tropicana Field.
