New York goes for two in a row after shutting out the Rays 3-0 on Friday night. Paul Goldschmidt hit a three-run homer, and Tampa Bay was held to one hit. The Yankees have won four of six, holding a two-game lead in the AL East, and they are 11-5 at home. The Rays have lost four in a row while being outscored 17-3. New York has won five of the past six meetings. Ryan Yarbrough will start for the Yankees, but it could be mostly a bullpen game. Tampa Bay hitters are just 6-for-42 for a .143 batting average against Yarbrough. The Rays are 0-5 in Zack Littell's past five starts with five days' rest. Take the Yankees.
