It all went down to the extra inning after a draw in regular time. Aaron Boone's team managed to get a victory eventually (2:1). Team is still at the top of the American League standings, but the Yankees need to improve, if they want to retain the pole position.
Chicago Cubs

Tip and bets
The New Yorkers have probably underestimated their opponents in the first match of the series. Chicago Cubs were extremely close to a victory, but eventually fell a little short due to the lack of fortune and composure.
We are expecting a much more aggressive performance from the Yankees in the second match. Visitors are unlikely to find another way to surprise the opponent, so it will probably be a one-sided game. We offer to place a bet on a confident victory from the hosts.
