New York Yankees vs Tampa Bay Rays Analysis

The Tampa Bay Rays head into the Bronx with hopes of completing a three game sweep over the New York Yankees on Wednesday evening. The Yankees have truly hit the skids, losing three straight and 10 of their last 12 games.

The Rays currently occupy the 2nd Wild Card spot with a full game lead over the Toronto Blue Jays. The crafty veteran Corey Kluber gets the nod for Tampa Bay, while the 30 year-old righty Domingo German toes the rubber for New York. First pitch is scheduled for 7:05 PM EST/4:05 PST.

The Tampa Bay Rays improved to 62-53 on the season after winning in Rays style with a 3-1 victory last night. Jeffrey Springs tossed five innings of one run baseball, while four relievers kept the Bronx Bombers scoreless through the final four innings.
