The Red Sox, while battling for a Wild Card spot, are oddly helping the Yankees by defeating the Orioles, which is purely incidental amidst their playoff fight.
With only 16 games left in the season, the Red Sox are four games behind for the last Wild Card spot and must treat every game as a must-win.
Nestor Cortes, after a skipped turn in the rotation, returns to face the Red Sox, showcasing both dominance and vulnerability in his recent outings.
Cortes leads the Yankees in innings pitched, but his performances have been inconsistent, fluctuating between strong outings and struggles against tougher teams.
