New York clinched a postseason berth thanks to Anthony Rizzo's go-ahead RBI double in the tenth inning. In the bottom of the tenth, Julio Rodríguez got picked off third when he strayed too far from the bag avoiding Randy Arozarena's bat after he lost it on a swinging strike three. Check it out:

Given that the Yankees are currently three games ahead of the Baltimore Orioles in the AL East with 12 games to go for both teams, the Yankees would need at least nine wins/Orioles' losses in order to finish the regular season with the same record as Baltimore.

After missing out on the dance in 2023, the Yankees clinched a playoff berth with a wild 2-1 extra-innings win Wednesday night against the Seattle Mariners. Holding the American League's best record at 89-63, the Yankees enter Thursday with a five-game lead over the Baltimore Orioles for the division with 10 games remaining.
