Yanks' Burnett puts focus on mound vs. KC Tue Sep 29 10:58:00 2009 EST
(Sports Network) - A.J. Burnett's mind will likely be elsewhere this evening when he toes the rubber for the New York Yankees in the second test of their three-game series against the Kansas City Royals at Yankee Stadium. Burnett was originally slated to start Monday's tilt, but had his start pushed back so he could spend the day with his father, who had triple-bypass surgery in Arkansas. The 32-year-old right-hander is coming off an impressive win in his last trip to the hill on Wednesday agai

(Sports Network) - With nothing left to play for over the regular season's final week, the New York Yankees might just be kind enough to let the Kansas City Royals enjoy their first-ever trip to new Yankee Stadium. The Royals visit the American League East champions this evening for the first of three straight games in the Bronx. Kansas City is the last AL club to visit New York's new home stadium. The Yankees, 55-23 as the host this year, end the regular season with three games at Tampa Bay. T

(Sports Network) - The New York Yankees try to finish off a sweep of the Boston Red Sox and secure an American League East title in the process when they wrap up their three-game set with their heated rivals at Yankee Stadium. New York, which clinched a spot in the postseason earlier in the week, reduced its magic number for wrapping up the East to one on Saturday behind a brilliant effort from CC Sabathia (19-7), who gave up just one hit over seven scoreless innings in the Yankees' 3-0 win.

In his third season as a full-time starter, Wainwright is 18-8 with a 2.59 earned run average and 11-1 with a 3.48 ERA in 14 road starts. New York Yankees pitcher CC Sabathia is the only other pitcher in baseball with 18 wins and also pitches today.

Snell won for the fifth time in his last six decisions on Sunday against the New York Yankees, who managed just a run and four hits in 5 1/3 innings. The win against the Yankees was his sixth start in his last seven outings that Snell, who will be making his second-ever start against the Jays, had allowed two runs or less. Toronto, m

Bronx, NY (Sports Network) - Boston Red Sox pitcher Jon Lester left Friday's game against the New York Yankees after taking a line drive off his right leg from the bat of Melky Cabrera in the third inning. With one out and the bases loaded, Cabrera lined a 1-0 fastball back to the mound, and it caught Lester on the inside of his right knee. Lester went down immediately and rolled around the mound in pain. Trainers came out to check on the lefty, and he walked to the clubhouse gingerly but under

Terry Francona's squad also has an outside chance at capturing the AL East, as Boston trails the first-place New York Yankees by six games. The two bitter rivals will square off in a three-game series at Yankee Stadium beginning on Friday. The Red Sox used a big fifth inning and another effective performance out of ace Josh Beckett to prevail last night. The All-St

Anaheim, CA (Sports Network) - The New York Yankees became the first team in baseball to clinch a playoff spot when the Texas Rangers lost, 9-1, in Oakland Tuesday night.
