Tampa Bay Rays (61-64) versus New York Yankees (67-57) is an exciting baseball matchup in the AL East on Tuesday night. Tampa Bay Rays will be looking to bounce back from their 7-1 thrashing against the Giants last week despite winning the series 2-1. They are fourth in the AL East, 6.5 games behind the Yankees with a winning percentage of .488. The Rays will undoubtedly be eager to start this series strongly as they aim for the .500 record.
New York Yankees, on the other hand, are trying their best to keep up with the Blue Jays in the divisional title race. They have been in fine form lately, slashing the Blue Jays’ lead in the division to only five games. However, the Yankees also have the Red Sox breathing down their necks with a similar winning percentage of .540. We expect them to try to keep the momentum going with a win on Tuesday night.
