The Yankees have won four straight games behind J.A. Happ, one of which they still won when he gave up six runs at Baltimore. After starting 6-9, the Yankees have won eight straight series and 40 of their last 50 games, a run that started winning a two-game series at Yankee Stadium against the Red Sox. One of those was an 8-0 win against Chris Sale. Yankees are the play.

Chris Sale has turned it around since his brutal start to the season pitching five quality starts in his last six outings and a 2.23 ERA in May. In 20 appearances against the Yankees, he is 7-5 with a 1.93 ERA. JA Happ is 4-3 with a 5.09 ERA including a 6.1 IP three earned run performance in his start against the Red Sox this season. The Yankees are in the bottom third of the league in scoring runs against lefties while the Red Sox are in the top third. Take the Red Sox on the road.
