The New York Yankees and the Tampa Bay Rays meet for the second time in two weeks Friday (7:10 pm Eastern) when they open a three-game series at Tropicana Field. This is without question the marquee matchup of the weekend because it could literally decide first place in the American League East division, as the second-place Rays enter the series just two games back of the first-place Yankees. New York will start righthander Phil Hughes on Friday, who is 12-3 with a 4.04 ERA. Tampa Bay will counter with righthander Wade Davis, who is 8-9 with a 4.32 ERA.

BetUS has Friday's game lined as a moneyline pick with each club giving -110 odds. The posted total is holding at nine runs. BetUS run line odds have the Rays giving -165 (-1 1/2) while the Yankees are getting +145 (+1 1/2).

Hughes will seek his second consecutive win after picking up the victory in his last start, a competent outing against the Royals. The righty went 5 1/3 innings, allowing three runs.

Davis earned his eighth win of the season Sunday at Cleveland when he held the Indians to two runs on seven hits in 6 1/3 innings. Davis is 1-2 with a 4.86 ERA in three career starts against the Yankees; he is 5-7 with a 3.74 ERA in 14 career starts at Tropicana Field.

Both teams are playing great ball, with the Yankees going a red-hot 9-2 SU in their past 11 games on the road, and the Rays a perfect 5-0 SU in their past five at home, and 16-5 SU in their past 21 overall.
