The New York Yankees should not be underdogs in their home ballpark as they have been excellent at Yankee Stadium this season with a 19-11 record. Domingo German is due for a bounce-back game for the New York Yankees after giving up 7 earned runs to one of the worst teams in baseball. Domingo German has been one of the biggest surprises in baseball this season, and he won’t only be up for an all-star appearance, but also the most improved player. I expect the New York Yankees to return some pop in their bat in their homerun friendly ballpark, and escape with a win against their rivals. Final Score Prediction, New York Yankees win 5-2.
