Tampa Bay at New York

New York needs a win to assure itself of a Wild Card spot, and it'll start Jameson Taillon, who has done his best work at home where he is 5-2 with a 3.40 ERA and a .215 opponent batting average. Tampa Bay will counter with Michael Wacha, and he has been torched for 43 earned runs in 64 innings on the road this year for a 6.05 ERA. Also, he has a 6.70 ERA in day games. The Yankees are 80-34 in their past 114 home games when the posted total is 9.0-10.5 runs, and they are 86-40 at home versus right-handed starters. All of the games are starting at the same time today, so New York can't depend on the other contenders losing first. Play the Yankees.
