The New York Yankees return home after more than a week on the road, set to host the Cleveland Guardians at Yankee Stadium. This matchup showcases two premier teams in Major League Baseball, with both holding top records in the American League—Yankees at 73-52 and Guardians at 72-52.
This series is vital for the Yankees, as securing two out of three games, or potentially a sweep against the AL Central-leading Guardians, could provide a significant boost before they face a stretch against five opponents with below .500 records. Following the Guardians, the Yankees will take on the Rockies, Nationals, Cardinals, Rangers, and Cubs before facing a challenging end to the season against the Royals, Red Sox, Mariners, and Orioles in September.
The second game of this important series will be available to stream on Amazon Prime Video.
Fans can tune into the Yankees vs. Guardians game on Amazon Prime Video, with the first pitch scheduled for shortly after 7:05 p.m. A pregame show will begin 30 minutes prior, featuring YES Network announcer Michael Kay alongside analysts David Cone, Paul O’Neill, Joe Girardi, John Flaherty, and Jeff Nelson.
