Red-hot Yanks take on Rays | |
ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. -- The New York Yankees have the best record in baseball at 50-22, and they've rarely been better than against the Tampa Bay Rays this season. The Yankees won their first five meetings with the Rays this season by a combined margin of 31-10 before losing Sunday, and they're back again for a weekend series at Tropicana Field, having won seven of eight overall after a sweep of the Mariners. New York has been dominant for many reasons, but a strong bullpen is certainly one of them, with a collective ERA of 2.86, second only to Houston among American League teams. Part of that has been solid starting pitching requiring less use of relievers. The Yankees' relievers have thrown close to 70 innings fewer than the Rays have in grinding out a 3.73 ERA in a league-high workload. MORE | |
