The New York Yankees go for the series win on Sunday in what should be considered an absolute must-win game.

The New York Yankees had a bad day on Saturday. Between not registering a hit until the eighth inning to another poor offensive output, Sunday needs to be treated as a must-win game.

New York dropped to 7.5 games out of first place in the AL East, and their lead at the top of the Wild Card shrunk to a half-game over Boston.
