Yankees Eye Playoff Berth, Host White Sox Tuesday Night
Bronx, NY – The New York Yankees have a chance to clinch a postseason berth as early as Tuesday night, fueled by a recent surge that has seen them win 19 of their last 27 games.

The Yankees will face the Chicago White Sox at Yankee Stadium, with the first pitch scheduled for 7:05 p.m. ET on YES Network. While the team hasn’t publicly released their starting lineup as of this writing, all eyes will be on the game’s outcome as the Yankees stand on the cusp of October baseball.
