The New York Yankees are set to begin a six-game road trip Friday night with a series against their American League East rival, the Toronto Blue Jays. The game will be broadcast as part of Apple TV's Friday Night Baseball.
The Yankees enter the series in second place in their division and hold a wild card spot. The Blue Jays are currently fourth in the AL East and are looking to build on a strong mid-week performance where they won three out of four games against the Boston Red Sox. The Yankees also won their most recent three-game series against the Seattle Mariners, taking two of those games, including a 10-5 victory.
Tonight's game is scheduled to start at 7:15 p.m. ET and will be exclusively streamed on Apple TV.
