I’m here in New York City, where I’ve linked up with the Red Sox after their weekend in Tampa. Going into this series, the team has a magic number of one to clinch the American League East division. So, with just one Red Sox win or one Toronto Blue Jays loss, the Red Sox will be celebrating on the field and popping champagne in the clubhouse. If it has to happen on the road, what better place to do it than at Yankee Stadium?
The stars didn’t align last night, as the Yankees pulled through on a victory and Toronto beat Baltimore, but everyone feels good about tonight.
I’ve been to Yankee Stadium before, but this is my first time shooting here. It’s been an awesome experience so far!
