 The Yankees play their final division games of the season when they visit Tampa Bay. They've gone 12-5 against the Rays this season and are a major league-best 54-20 against their own division this year. That .730 winning percentage is the highest by any team against its own division in the wild-card era.

 The Yankees hit the eight-run mark for the sixth time in their last 12 games Sunday. They are tied with the Astros for the most games plating at least eight with 42, New York's most since having 45 in 2009.

 Brett Gardner homered again Sunday, and is tied with the Astros' George Springer for the AL lead with nine homers this month. This comes after Gardner hit 10 homers in 65 games in June, July and August.

 The Rays have gone 17-6 since August 29, tied with the A's for the best record in the AL in that span. Their 5.8 runs per game since August 29 is fourth-highest in MLB. This comes after they averaged 4.3 runs in their previous 23 games, the sixth-worst in MLB from August 3-28.

 Austin Meadows had his third straight two-hit game Monday, and is batting .400 with eight home runs, six doubles and 19 RBI this month. Since the start of August, Meadows has 28 extra-base hits, tied with the Royals' Jorge Soler for sixth in the AL.

 Charlie Morton, who is scheduled to start Wednesday, struck out eight in his last start to move into fifth on the Rays' single-season strikeout list with 231. Nine strikeouts would move him into sole possession of third place behind two seasons from Chris Archer.

For the Tampa Bay Rays, the past few weeks have been defined by close games and dramatic victories. The ability to win a majority of those games is keeping the Rays in the second American League wild-card spot.
After getting a marathon win Tuesday, the Rays hope to record another victory Wednesday night when they face the New York Yankees in the finale of a two-game series in St. Petersburg, Fla.
