On the brink of elimination, the team with the AL's best record in 2011 is refusing to go easily. The Yankees have taken a 6-1 lead over the Tigers in Game 4 of their ALDS at Comerica Park.

Cano's monster night in series opener solidifies his status as Yanks' best hitter.

The Yankees had to sit for 24 hours, but it was worth the wait. Robinson Cano drove in six runs and the Yanks beat the Tigers 9-3 in a rain-delayed ALDS opener that started Friday.

Nasty weather in NY postpones ALDS Game 1 to Saturday.

Evan Longoria hit a 12th-inning home run and the Rays erased a 7-0 deficit to beat the Yanks 8-7. Coupled with the Red Sox loss, the Rays won the wild card and will face the Rangers.

It's going down to Game 162 in the AL wild-card race -- if not further. The Rays rallied to beat the Yanks 5-3 and stay tied with the Red Sox entering the final day of the regular season.

In his Five Cuts, Joe Lemire discusses how the Red Sox widened their wild-card lead despite yet another loss to the O's, the Braves' bleak situation, the Yanks' division title and more.

After waiting several hours to start the game, the New York Yankees held on a few more minutes for the go-ahead run.

At least in this particular season, the Red Sox had found the formula for beating CC Sabathia, who had lived up to his ace moniker against virtually every other team.

One inning, 12 runs, 40 minutes and 70 pitches. Those were just some of the wild numbers in a record-setting start for the New York Yankees.
