After another disappointing day in the Bronx, the New York Yankees hope to put things behind them and extend their lead in Game 3 on Sunday. The Rays shocked the Yanks as they rocked their pitching staff with nine runs. The Bronx Bombers failed as their offense crumbled against a rookie pitcher, scoring only one run.
Nestor Cortez Jr. was a disaster on the mound, surrendering six earned runs in 4.1 innings pitched. Marcus Stroman will get the ball in Game 3, hoping to turn things around for the team. Stroman has been decent this season, but a few rough outings have cost his team.
The Rays, meanwhile, had a spectacular pitching game from Bradley. The talented player pitched seven scoreless innings and struck out five opponents. Bradley was the player of the game and the key behind the Rays' victory.

The Rays offense poured in the home runs from Alex Jackson, Issac Paredes and Randy Arozarena. Rookie pitcher Shane Baz will be sent to the mound to deal with the pinstripes in Game 3. Baz has a 0-1 record with a terrible 5.23 ERA. It's been a rough start for Baz, but his pitching has been limited.

Yankees vs. Rays Prediction
The Yanks were predicted to win Game 2, but Cortes' outing and their struggling offense was nothing less than a disaster. Stroman had his great moments and is known to rebound well. It's up to the team's bullpen to save this game, and the offense has no option but to open up and score a minimum of five runs.
The Rays, meanwhile, have a rookie pitcher for the second consecutive game. With Stroman on the mound, the odds are in favor of the Yanks to win. However, the offense must support Stroman on the mound. The Yanks are now two games behind the Orioles in the AL East division.
