New York Yankees (8-3) and Oakland Athletics (4-7) will conclude their three-game series on Thursday evening at Yankee Stadium. The Yankees opened this series with a 5-3 win before the Athletics rallied on Wednesday night to make it 1-1. The hosts will look to bounce back from this defeat and maintain their top position in the AL East, where they lead the Orioles by 2.5 games. It has been generally a strong start for the Yankees.
Oakland Athletics, on the other hand, are fourth in the AL West, 2.5 games behind the Rangers. They’ve struggled to win consistently this season, dropping six of their last 10 assignments. The A’s will look to build on their 3-2 win over the Yankees after a tough start to the campaign. They’ll want to use the same blueprint this evening by keeping the game close and snatching it in the dying moments.

Our New York Yankees vs Athletics Prediction
The Yankees are the warm -265 favorites as they look to forget their previous defeat. Their offense continues to impress this season, scoring 54 runs, with an average of 4.91 runs per contest. The Athletics aren’t doing badly either after crossing the plate 46 times. They’ll give Jeffrey Springs (1-0, 2.38 ERA, and 9 strikeouts) his second start this season, whereas the Yankees will have Ryan Weathers (0-0, 4.50 ERA, and 11 strikeouts) on the mound. We expect Weathers to try to lower his ERA in a highly defensive battle. The Yankees should gain control of this series with a win.
Our prediction for New York Yankees vs Oakland Athletics: New York Yankees on the -1.5 line.
