The Yankees just blastd the O's 11-2 and game 2 of the DH is coming up.
The Yankees will be going for win 100 and the best record in the AL. That will clinch home field advantage for them. (As will an Oakland loss.) It goes without saying how important this is in the post-season.
Additionally, Joe Torre believes that part of the reason they lost last year was that they were tired from playing hard right to the very end. A win tonite would give them 2 games to breathe easy and get some rest and kick back. I think they have every motivation to try hard tonite and put this baby to bed.
