Re: OFFICIAL YANKEES 2005 WORLD SERIES CHAMPIONS OR BUST THREAD
The AL East race was inevitably going to tighten up (well, at least the Red Sox - Yankees part of it). The Yanks are on a roll and the Sox have been mediocre as of late.
We Sox fans can take a little comfort in knowing we've played fewer home games (19) and more road games (26) than any team in the American League. Meanwhile, the Yankees have had a majority of their games at home (25 vs. 21). The Orioles have had 60% of their games at home (27 vs. 18). If we project out the home and road records, the final AL East standings will be:
Orioles: 107-55
Red Sox: 93-69
Yankees: 88-74
Hmmmmm. Those Orioles have a damn good 13-5 road record.
