The Yankees just made a standings statement in Baltimore, capped off by Ben Rice’s extra-inning exclamation point. Adam Weinrib and Thomas Carranante break down why this was a must-have series, how Fried and Rodón anchored the pitching staff, and why Sunday’s wild win felt like a season-changer.

Key storylines:

⚾ Ben Rice + Jazz + Caballero + Volpe end the Yankees’ road extra innings issue

⚾ Jazz says he doesn’t want to leave NY…but will the Yankees extend him?

⚾ Max Fried’s best start since May, and why his health is the biggest storyline going forward

⚾ Can you let yourself believe with the Jays and Sox beating each other up?
