The Yankees (62-45, second in AL East) are featured on Prime Video for the first time since July 10 as they wrap up a six-game road trip with a visit to the City of Brotherly Love to take on the Philadelphia Phillies (65-40, best in MLB).
Following a tough start to the second half, the Yankees got back to their winning ways, taking two out of three against the Red Sox for the first time in three meetings this season.
Sunday night’s series finale in Boston also featured Jazz Chisholm Jr. debut in Pinstripes after the 2022 All-Star was traded to the Bronx on Saturday afternoon.
For the Phillies, they’ve dropped four straight series dating before the All-Star Break, losing a series to the American League leading Cleveland Guardians (63-42) this past weekend in a battle of the best teams in MLB right now.
This is the first meeting between the two organizations in Philadelphia since 2021, where the Phillies won both games against their 2009 World Series opponents.
The series opener will feature two of the best pitchers in baseball this season, with Luis Gil taking the mound for the Yankees and Zack Wheeler getting the start for the Phillies, just two of 15 starting pitchers that have amassed double digit wins so far this season.
