The Yankees have a chance to take two of three from the AL East leading Toronto Blue Jays tonight in Toronto. The Bronx Bomber won in extra innings last night thanks to 10th inning heroics from Rookie First Baseman Greg Bird. Bird hit a three run home run giving the Yankees a six to three lead. The Yanks went on to win six to four.

Tonight Ivan Nova will pitch in place of Masahiro Tanaka in as close to a must win as you can get.
