The Baltimore Orioles are on fire lately, winners of six in a row and eight of their last nine. Not to mention the last two wins are over the Yankees. Now the Yankees need to win today just to avoid being swept by a team that was under .500 before this series began.

The good news is Alex Rodriguez is creeping up on more milestones and hopefully can help power the Yankees over the Orioles. With his two run home run last night A Rod has 666 homers (Ironic?) and 2001 RBI's.
