Orioles vs Yankees series preview: The season ends in New York

The Baltimore Orioles travel to face the New York Yankees for their final series of the regular season after being eliminated from postseason contention. The elimination was confirmed when the Chicago White Sox defeated the Kansas City Royals 9-1 to secure the third American League Wild Card spot. Baltimore enters the series holding a 2-8 record against New York this season.

The Yankees have already secured the top Wild Card spot and are locked into their playoff seeding. New York manager Aaron Boone stated that star Aaron Judge is not expected to be ready for the Wild Card round due to a calf injury, following an earlier broken rib that sidelined him for several months.
