Game 21: New York Yankees vs. Detroit Tigers

The Yankees will try to take the rubber match of this three-game series and send a disappointed Tigers team back to Detroit. Detroit starter Max Scherzer has given them problems in the past, but the Yankees will be sending ace CC Sabathia to the hill. I will go out on a limb and say that he will pitch better than Freddy Garcia.
