So much can change as we saw the Twins win 13-straight games in May while the Athletics lost 11 straight games and 14-of-15 into the final two days of May. The Tigers are 18-8 in May as they begin a 3-game road trip at Kansas City with their only key series in June vs. the Twins to close the month. The Red Sox have lost 5-straight games while the Rays have won 8-of-9 to close the month. But the New York Yankees have extended their division lead with 5-straight wins and 9 of their last 10 as they begin a World Series rematch and 3-game series on the road with the LA Dodgers on May 30. 

The Yankees have scored a league-high 305 runs with a league-best run differential of +113 followed by the Tigers (288, +84) with no other AL team above +30. The Athletics (-101) and Orioles (-97) have the worst run differential in the American League.
