Coming off a sweep of the White Sox, the Yankees find themselves in Kauffman Stadium to take on the Royals for one game – a makeup from a postponement on June 9. Today marks the beginning of a “make or break” stretch for the Bronx Bombers, as they will face the Tigers and division rival Blue Jays later in the week. Michael Pineda will go for New York, and will try to continue his impressive string of success. “Big Game” James Shields goes for KC
Game time: 7:10 pm ET – Kauffman Stadium – Kansas City, MO
