They ripped Kansas City in the opener Monday night, but as I watch from my press box seat, the Bombers are currently on the wrong end of a 3-2 deficit, heading into the bottom of the eighth.
AJ Burnett pitched a gem tonight, allowing only one run to the Royals. Phil Coke pitched OK in relief, but his throwing error to second base cost the Yankees late.
They still have six outs to turn things around.
As for Sunday, it was another surreal experience. The Yankees clinched their 11th AL East crown since 1995, tying for the most division titles in the wild card era along the way. They have now won nine of their last 10 games against Boston after losing the first eight games in the season series.
It was also the Yankees' 49th comeback win, which is the most in baseball, and their 35th come-from-behind victory at home, which is the most in team history.
What can I say, there’s never a dull moment in the Bronx these days.
