New York Yankees versus Baltimore Orioles

Challenge place > Yankee Stadium
In a strange twist, the Yankees (86-51) have actually fared much better without the 13-time All-Star. New York went 11-3 when Rodriguez was on the DL and is 21-3 without the three-time AL MVP in the lineup this season. New York is 4-12 with Burnett (10-12, 5.15 ERA) on the mound since the start of June, compared to 51-19 in its other games. (7-12, 4.72) is leading the rotation, posting a 1.29 ERA in winning his last three starts. Against Boston on Tuesday, the left-hander gave up two runs in six innings of a 5-2 victory. “Spoiler or anything, we’re going out there looking to win some games,” said right fielder , who has five RBIs in his last four contests. “That’s the main objective here, and I think we’re on the right path.” Matusz has pitched well in three starts against the Yankees this season, recording a 2.41 ERA, but suffered a loss in each outing. He’s had virtually no offensive help, receiving two total runs of support.
