The Yankee bullpen was impressive again tonight as they kept the Orioles off of the scoreboard until the thirteenth inning.

Robinson Cano drove in the Yankees only run with an RBI ground out to second base in the sixth inning.

The Yankees and Orioles will play a decisive Game 5 tomorrow. The winner will punch their ticket to the American League Championship Series.
