After splitting the first two games of the American League Division Series in Baltimore, the Yankees return home for the final games of the series, beginning Wednesday night.
And that should worry them.
There's been no aura and mystique for the home team at Yankee Stadium against the Orioles this season. The two clubs finished the season 9-9 against each other, but were each 6-3 at the other team's home park.
All the Orioles have to do to win the ALDS is win two of the next three games at Yankee Stadium -- something they've already done three times this season.
The Orioles outscored the Yankees 49-32 during those three series at the Stadium (click on the dates for full box scores):
