Leaders Will Go at Each Other in American League 2/2 Games
The pennant race tightens as Boston visits Cleveland for a three game set while Chicago and New York clash, with a handful of wins by Thursday likely reshaping the top four. The Yankees, Indians, White Sox, and Red Sox all chase, each within a game or two of the lead. In the National League, the Dodgers end a four-game skid with an 11-2 win, Giants over Pirates, Phillies rally past Cardinals, and Braves topple the Cubs as the chase remains tight.
