Tuesday Night Updates

After the Angels dropped another to Texas, their chances of getting home field advantage seem to be dwindling. The Yankees also lost on a 10th inning walk-off home run by Dioner Navarro. The Red Sox and Indians both won, tightening their grasps on first round home series'.

As of right now, here are the playoff matchups
Angels (3) @ Red Sox (2)
Yankees (4) @ Indians (1)

CLE 93 63 .596 --- 6 Games Left (3 at SEA, 3 at KC)
BOS 93 64 .592 0.5 5 (1 vs OAK, 4 vs MIN)
LAA 92 66 .582 2.0 4 (1 at Tex, 3 at OAK)
NYY 90 67 .573 3.5 5 (2 at TB, 3 at BAL)

AL Batting Leaders (Including Tuesday 9/25/07)

1) .359 Magglio Ordonez (2-for-4 today)
2) .350 Ichiro Suzuki (2-for-6)
3) .340 Placido Polanco (2-for-4)

x) .339 Chone Figgins (0-for-3)

Because Figgins missed a month to start the season, he needs 13 plate appearances with 4 games remaining to qualify for the batting leaders. (Link to original post on Figgins and plate appearances.)
