Both the New York Yankees and the Detroit Tigers needed five games to advance to the ALCS. This series will also likely go the distance, but New York’s pitching will eventually overwhelm Detroit and help the Yankees advance to the World Series.
It is no surprise to see these two teams here. While Baltimore and Oakland were nice surprises, they lacked the rosters and the experience to move on.
New York won the season series 6-4, but Detroit still has the bragging rights after eliminating the Yankees in last year’s playoffs.
The Bronx Bombers will not settle for losing two years in a row, and their pitching will ensure their success.
This will be a great series, but there are a few reasons why New York’s pitching will be the deciding factor.
