Yankees face must-win Game 2 in ALDS
Original: The numbers say Yankees can't afford to lose Game 2. There are reasons to think they won't https://www.nytimes.com/athle
The New York Yankees head into Game 2 of their ALDS matchup with the statistics against them: no team in the series can afford to fall into a 2-0 deficit, and history favours clubs that win the second game. Analysts point to reasons for optimism, including starting pitcher Cam Schlittler, as the Yankees look to level the series against Freddy Peralta and their opponents.
Why now: The Yankees' playoff series is live right now, and a loss in Game 2 would put them on the brink of elimination.
