The New York Yankees just keep on winning as they have now won 13 in a row after an 8-2 win over Oakland. Gerrit Cole went six shutout innings to move his record to 13-6 on the year. The Yankees will look to extend their win streak and put pressure on Tampa By by sending Nestor Cortes Jr. to the mound. this season, he has posted a 2-1 record with a 2.56 ERA and 60 strikeouts this season.

With yesterday's loss, the A's have now lost six in a row and are heading in the wrong direction when it comes to the playoffs. Sean Manaea allowed five runs over 4.1 innings in the loss. The A's will counter by sending Frankie Montas to the mound. he is 9-9 with a 3.84 ERA and 161 strikeouts this season.

New York is 35-16 in their last 51 games overall while Oakland is 1-6 in their last 7 games against the AL East and 0-5 in their last 5 home games. Nestor Cortes has also pitched well as of late. They say all good things must come to an end but with the way the A's are playing right now, i can't see them beating the red hot Yankees today.

Play on New York Yankees.
