9/21 - Athletics, Yankees Clinch Their Divisions

In the west, the Oakland Athletics have clinched the AL West, currently at a record of 89-65, and ten games up on the Angels, they are thrilled to be headed back to the playoffs after two years without making it. While on the east coast, the New York Yankees have clinched the AL East division, currently with the best record in the majors at 100-55, and eight and half up on the Tampa Bay Rays, who will most likely be the wild card winner. The Yankees continue their streak of playoff runs, and hope this year is twenty-seven in World Series victories.
