The New York Yankees and the Cleveland Indians will play an early one today in the Bronx and Yankee Stadium will be electric. The Yanks will be honoring the greatest reliever of all time, Mariano Rivera. James Paxton will be tapping the rubber for New York and after a slow start he has turned things around. Over his last 3, Paxton is 3-0, with a 2.89 ERA, and a 0.96 WHIP. Zach Plesac will go for Cleveland and he has pitched well. In his last 3 turns, Plesac is 1-0, with a 3.94 ERA, and a 1.56 WHIP. Plesac will be making his first career start in the Bronx and will have to contend with a packed house of revved up Yankees fans. The pressure could be too much.
