Nothing better than a crude wit borne of years of frustration coupled with long, unbearable winters.

OK, somebody explain this concept in baseball......
If the yanks win 1 of 3, they will have the same record as the sox. But they will lead the season series between them 10-9. so why do they play a tiebreaker?
I am not familiar with this in baseball. In every other sport, the first tiebreaker is the record between the two tied teams.

Season series in baseball is worth nothing more than bragging rights - even homefield advantage isn't impacted.
