The Yankees provided a stress-free night at the Stadium in the one-game playoff
If I knew the AL Wild-Card Game was going to be that easy to win, I could have saved a lot of time and energy over the six-plus months complaining about the Aaron Boone Yankees.
There has to be more Yankees baseball after tonight's wild-card game
The Yankees’ season could end tonight with a loss to the A’s in the wild-card game. But in a season that at times showed some much promise, this can’t be the end. There has to be more.
The Yankees are in the wild-card game again and this one will be even more nerve-racking than the past
The Yankees are back in the AL Wild-Card Game. It’s not a place I thought they would be after the way last season ended and this season started. But it’s where they are for the third time in four seasons.
Whether the Yankees pick Luis Severino, Masahiro Tanaka or J.A. Happ to start the wild-card game, it has to lead to a win

The Giants are not only going to cover, but win at home against the Saints
After this week of football, one quarter of the season will have been played. It seems like just yesterday I was watching Ereck Flowers take penalties on two of the Giants’ first three offensive plays of the season.
The Giants saved their season in Houston with their first meaningful win since 2016
I forgot what it felt like to experience a Giants win because it’s been so long. The Giants had gone 3-16, including the postseason, in their last 19 games before saving their season with a win in Houston.
The Giants are on the brink of elimination after once again starting the season 0-2
I thought putting up a 3-spot in Week 1 last season was as low as it could get for the Giants on the road in Dallas. And then Sunday night happened when the team was utterly embarrassed on both sides of the ball.
The AL Wild-Card Game is getting closer and closer to being played in Oakland
The Yankees’ lead for the first wild-card spot is down to 2 and with the A’s having an easy remaining schedule, it’s looking more and more like that the AL Wild-Card Game will be in Oakland.
