Yankees Don't Want To Have To Rely On Others In Playoff Race

The Yankees defeated the Orioles to regain first place in the American League East on Sunday afternoon.

New York is in a battle with Baltimore and Tampa Bay for the division crown. With 22 games remaining, they hope to take care of business on their own.

"The bottom line is we're in first place," Joe Girardi said. "The one thing that you want to be able to do is just rely on your club. You don't want to have to rely on other people."
