New York Yankees vs Tampa Bay Rays: Storylines

The Japanese pitcher is soon to become a free agent and will like to prove that heās still worthy of a big buck. Thus far, heās put together an 11-5 record with a 3.31 ERA vs. Tampa Bay over 21 career starts.
Kevin Cash will counter with right-hander Charlie Morton for Game 3 and even though he hasnāt played since September 25, heās one of the most experienced pitchers on the roster from his tenure with the Houston Astros.
Itās also worth noting that Morton holds a 4-2 record with a 3.83 ERA in 19 career starts vs. the Bronx Bombers, although heās struggled vs. Giancarlo Stanton (who hasnāt?) and Brett Gardner.
