Yankees Vs. Rays, can Tampa challenge New York’s position?

The New York Yankees will go up against the Tampa Bay Rays not once but twice this Sunday, September 4th, in Tropicana field stadium. Fans are excited to witness this series of face-offs that will start on Saturday, September 3rd. It’s going to be three back-to-back matches of word-class baseball!

The New York Yankees are coming from a recent loss against the L.A Angels, so team morale isn’t in the best condition. Even though the Yankees won the last of the three matchups, the Angels were able to beat them the first two times. 

The Yankees have a 3.31 ERA pitching staff, a .218 opponent batting average, and a 1.10 WHIP this season. Their offensive play scored 652 runs with a batting average of .240 and an on-base percentage of .323. Despite the recent loss to the L.A angels, the Yankees still maintain a record of 79 wins and 52 losses this season, which puts them in the top place of their division.

How will the Yankees fare this September?

Meanwhile, Tampa Bay Rays hold the second spot this season with 72 wins and 57 losses. They are coming from two back-to-back wins against the Miami Marlins, scoring 7-2 in the first game and 2-1 in the second. The Rays are pumped up and ready to play against the Yankees and go into the three-game series with great morale. 

Although the series will commence on Saturday, it will only end on Sunday after two back-to-back games. In a way, this setting has its advantages for whoever loses the first game, as they will still get two more chances on Sunday to steal the win. Baseball fans are especially psyched for this, as they will see the two top dogs in MLB duke it out. 

How did New York Yankees do in their last game?

Yankee fans were expecting a lot from the popular baseball team after having witnessed one of their worst performances in a long time. August was not a good month for them, as they managed to survive with a record of 10-18, .357. Fans have pointed out that this is their worst record, with the most losses in a month since September 1991, which saw a record of 9-19, .321. 

The team had made considerable acquisitions, so expectations were relatively high last month. However, despite the new ‘improvements,’ New York still couldn’t deliver and struggled the entire month to survive. 

Angels beat Yankees in 2 of the three games in their last matchup series.

Their last series of matchups with the Los Angeles Angels ended in some major losses, an utter disappointment for the team and their fans. New York lost 4-3 in the first game, then bounced back with a 7-4 win. This naturally restored some hope amongst fans, who now saw a chance for victory. However, these fantasies ended when the team lost the last game with a final score of 3-2. 

How did Tampa Bay Rays do in their last game?

Tampa Bay Rays performed quite well last month and are on their way to taking the first spot amongst the AL East teams. They are in second place right now, next to the New York Yankees, but that could change this month. The team is heading into September with revamped energy and a fresh mindset as they prepare to take on the number one AL East spot-holder, the Yankees. 

Tampa Bay Rays are looking to make an impact this September.

The Tampa Bay Rays have a record of 72 wins and 57 losses and are gunning for the top position in their division. The New York Yankees still have a 6 game lead, but that’s a far cry from previous years, where they would dominate the season with a 15-win lead. 

Judging by how terrible New York did last month, this could be Tampa’s chance to make an impact and do some considerable damage. As it is, experts predict that New York will lose their first place position, and the upcoming three-game series with Tampa could cause some significant damage to its overall track record. 

Tampa is coming with massive back-to-back wins from their two-game series against the Miami Marlins. They dominated the first game with a final score of 7-2 and went on to impress the stadium with their skill and tenacity on the field. After being brutally beaten by the Rays, Miami was all set to come back with a win in the next game and hoped to bring the series to a tie. But no matter what they did, the Rays were one step ahead of the curve. 

The Rays showed a lot of grit in the second game, and there were moments when it looked like they would steal the victory. However, they couldn’t match up against Tampa’s air-tight offensive game and ultimately lost to them with a score of 2-1. 

Will New York eventually lose their top position in the AL East division?

The Yankees are worried for the first time after enjoying a long reign as the top dogs in the AL East division. Judging by their horrible performance last month, fans are starting to wonder if they’re going to witness a new era in Major League Baseball. An Era that puts the Tampa Bay Rays in the first place of the AL East division. 

There is a lot of anticipation and speculation in the air as the two teams face each other in an action-packed three-game series that starts this Saturday and ends on Sunday. New York’s performance in the upcoming matchup series will determine whether they keep their crown, or eventually fall down to a lower position in the division. Whatever the case, we are definitely excited to see the outcome, which might potentially be a game-changer for this season.
