The Yankees can clinch the AL East crown tonight, but they’ll need some help. The postseason eliminated Rays will first need to beat the Orioles again, and then Mother Nature will have to chill out with all this rain. It hasn’t been pouring in New York, but it’s been raining on-and-off since about noon and the forecast says it’ll stop sometime Thursday morning. With two important games to play between now and then, expect the Yankees and Red Sox to wait this one out as long as possible. Here’s the starting nine…
SS Derek Jeter
RF Nick Swisher
3B Alex Rodriguez
1B Mark Teixeira
2B Robinson Cano
C Russell Martin
CF Curtis Granderson
DH Eduardo Nunez
LF Ichiro Suzuki
RHP David Phelps
Tonight’s game is schedule to start a little after 7pm ET, but who knows with the weather. The game can be seen on YES.
