The New York Yankees is one of the most successful and famous franchises. But this season has not been on the side of the team. What started the season with a bang will be ending the season in a different way.

Before the midsummer classic, the Pinstripes have set a new record of victories for their club with 64 wins. According to the stats of the first half, the team was on its way to having 120 wins. But that seems impossible, as they don’t even have 80 wins, and the end of this season is not very far.
