Hays lifts Orioles over Yankees as New York falls behind in wild-card raceYankees reliever Clay Holmes threw a wild pitch with two outs in the ninth inning that let the tying run score, then Austin Hays chopped an RBI single in the 10th that lifted the Baltimore Orioles to a 3-2 win Thursday night, dropping New York back in the AL wild-card race. Good. Certainly the Blue Jays are playing fantastic baseball right now and at the right time. As a thisismycrew fan I believe TOR is the most dangerous club that could come out of the AL.
