They've been nondescript and largely underwhelming all year. Suddenly, though, the New York Yankees have a puncher's chance at a prime time spot in the playoffs. The Yankees finished off their season series with the first-place Toronto Blue Jays by winning two of three at Yankee Stadium and suddenly, with 19 games left in the season, are just two games out of the American League East lead.

The Yankees failed to carry over the momentum they might've generated with their series win in Houston, laying an egg in the series opener with the Blue Jays. They've got two more chances to get things right against their rivals, but if they fail, their sights will start to be set pretty squarely on the AL Wild Card race rather than the push for an AL East title.

The Yankees survived by inches, maybe thanks in part to catcher Austin Wells trying to blow foul a White Sox flyball to right that looked like a game-winner. "It might have (worked)," Wells said. "I hope other people were helping to blow it, too." The White Sox had the winning run on third base with one out in the 10th inning of a 2-2 game, so Boone opted for a five-man infield hoping reliever David Bednar would get a strikeout, popup or groundball right at someone.

CHICAGO (AP) - It was just like old times for Carlos Rodón. Only in a different uniform. Rodón pitched six effective innings for the New York Yankees against the Chicago White Sox on Friday night. The left-hander allowed one run and seven hits. It was Rodón's first start at Rate Field since he departed Chicago in free agency after the 2021 season.

Siegelman Stable has made a name for itself by merging equestrian culture with fashion, and now the label has locked in one of New York 's most iconic institutions for its latest project. After recently teaming with the New York Mets, the brand is back in the ballpark-this time alongside the New York Yankees. To mark the occasion, Siegelman Stable enlisted Yankees captain Aaron Judge to headline the new campaign, underscoring the collaboration's weight and reach.

NEW YORK - The San Francisco Giants will host the New York Yankees to start Major League Baseball's season on March 25, the earliest opening day other than international games. MLB said Tuesday the other 28 teams open the following day, with Kansas City at Atlanta, Minnesota at Baltimore, Washington at the Chicago Cubs, Boston at Cincinnati, the Los Angeles Angels at Houston, Arizona at the Los Angeles Dodgers, Colorado at Miami.

To do it twice. That's remarkable,

Williams has a 5.60 ERA in 49 appearances, illustrating how challenging his transition to the Yankees has been, both on-field and psychologically.
