This is a big game for the Yankees, as they are coming off a devastating sweep against the Detroit Tigers, and Rizzo needs to step up for his team in this game.
The Yankees are in a dire need of a win in this game, and they might just get that win, as they will be heavily motivated to have a bounce-back game here.
