MLB: Yankees have best record in GL since July 17

With the victory by a tight slate of two races by one over the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim Monday night at the Yankee Stadium, Yankees improved to a 20-8 record, the best mark in the majors since July 17, moving 14 games, his most this season, over .500.

Now, New York is 5 1/2 games above the Tampa Bay Rays in the AL East, just two games behind the second-place Boston Red Sox and 1 1 / 2 Oakland Athletics games for the second AL wild card. Boston arrives in the city of the Bronx for a doubleheader today Tuesday:

Much of the success of NYY in the period cited is its relief and an example is in Monday’s game: The missed opportunity did not hurt, because the New York bullpen combined for three innings and a third of a ball from a single hit without annotations.

After a difficult weekend that included a botched save at the Field of Dreams Game and a confession that he no longer felt worthy of the ninth inning, Britton relieved Cole and struck out left-handed hitter Jared Walsh to end the sixth.

Albert Abreu retired all five batters he faced, two through strikeouts, and fellow countryman Joely Rodriguez froze Shohei Ohtani in a 94.2 mph sinker to end the eighth. Chad Green pitched around a single in the ninth for his fourth save.

I am fond of the King of Sports, especially the Boston Red Sox in MLB and in general all of Mexican baseball. This profession has given me the opportunity to cover major events such as the Caribbean Series, LMB All Star, LMP (uninterrupted since 2009), signings of important players. I had the chance to attend the 2013 World Classic in Arizona, USA, albeit as a fan. Apart from this beautiful sport, I love basketball, where I have also narrated games and even an NBA friendly 10 years ago, but I carry baseball in my veins. Bachelor of Communication Sciences from the Autonomous University of Sinaloa (UAS) , from which I graduated in 2011. I was born in Mazatlán, Sinaloa and started in the world of sports journalism in 2004 in the newspaper El Sol de Mazatlán, where I was a baseball columnist and reporter at the same time. In January 2009 I came to El Debate as a journalist reporter and it was almost six years (in the first stage), until in November 2014 I emigrated to the radio providing my services in Línea Directa-Grupo RSN. My cycle there ended in July 2019 and within days, El Debate gave me another opportunity to work and opened the doors for me again. That is how I came to Al Bat, where I have been since 2019 as a web journalist.
