Yanks, 'better' than a year ago, return to playoffs
Briefly

A lot of things have come together. Probably better health overall. Definitely an added focus for guys that were coming off tough years and simply put, we're better. We weren't a great team last year and this team has a chance to do something special.
(It'll) definitely be exciting, especially after the season we had last year missing out on the postseason. That's what we came into the season to do, get into the postseason and give ourselves an opportunity to go out there and win a World Series. That'll be step.
After spending last year sitting at home when the postseason arrived, the Yankees wrapped up their place in the playoffs with a 2-1 win over the Seattle Mariners in 10 innings Wednesday night.
New York has the best record in the American League at 89-63 and leads second-place Baltimore by five games in the AL East with 10 to play.
