Yankees first baseman Mark Teixeira says that he's comfortable in New York and is ready to play better. "We need to play better," Teixeira said Tuesday night. "I personally need to play better. I haven't hit well with runners in scoring position. Everyone on the team expects a lot out of themselves, so we just need to play better." The Yankees trail the Red Sox by three games in the AL East, and lead the Wild Card race. "If you go into a game with our lineup, our pitching staff you know you have a chance to win every single night," he said. "And that's a great feeling."
