The New York Yankees take Game 4 of the American League Division Series against the Cleveland Indians. Final score 7-3. The series deciding Game 5 is Wednesday in Cleveland.
It seemed that after regaining first place by taking two of three from the Blue Jays last weekend, then sweeping the Twins this week, the Yankees had righted-the-ship and were gaining steam toward September.
The Yankees got off to a good start in Cleveland on Thursday night and were able to fend off a late rally to avoid a three-game sweep, beating the Indians 8-6 to end a five-game losing streak.
