New York at Los Angeles

The Yankees got a healthy dose of what they have been doing to teams all year as they were the victim of a walk-off hit that gave the Angels life in the series now facing a 2-1 deficit instead of 3-0 - huge difference. This is an intriguing matchup as the Yankees brought in CC Sabathia to give them the top of the rotation ace they have been lacking, while the Angels brought in Scott Kazmir specifically to beat the Yankees. Kazmir owns a stellar 2.65 ERA against the Yankees in 14 career starts, and has certainly had their number over the last five years. When Kazmir has taken the mound at home vs. the Yankees, the numbers shine even brighter as he has posted a 1.99 ERA against them. The Yankees are having problems putting together offense as all their runs were scored on HRs yesterday, and they have become too dependent on the longball. Sabathia has truly had his struggles vs. the Angels despite pitching well at home. The Yankees are just 8-21 in Anaheim - truly their chamber of horrors. Momentum and the right pitcher make the Angels a live dog here, so Anaheim gets the call.
