The New York Yankees continue to dominate the American League, defeating the Tampa Bay Rays by a score of 2-1 tonight.

Anthony Rizzo walked it off by blasting his 17th home run of the season in the ninth inning.

"Rizzo took a DNA test... Turns out that was 100% his pitch."-@Yankees

The New York Yankees are now a league-best 47-16 and have won 14 straight games at Yankee Stadium, the most since the new stadium was built in 2009.

Clarke Schmidt got the start for the Yankees after tonight's scheduled starter. Luis Severino contracted COVID-19 and was forced to be placed on the 10-day IL. Schmidt went three innings, allowing zero earned runs.

One fan said it best, saying that the team cannot be stopped with walk-offs and their lethal offense.

The Yankees, aka the "Bronx Bombers," kept on rolling with their seventh straight win.

Another fan stated that Rizzo is the Tampa Bay Rays' father.

Overall, the Yankees look to be the best team in baseball. Combined with timely hitting and excellent pitching, this team seems destined for a World Series title.
