Two at Yankee Stadium, one in Texas.<p></p>The first series, at Yankee Stadium, started April, 15th. The Rangers traveled to NY to complete a ten-game road trip. The Yankees had just finished a three game series at home.<p></p>The second series, at Texas, starts May, 6th. NY travels to Texas after playing four road games, Texas travels to Texas after playing seven road games. On May, 5th, the early Yankee game at Detroit will end about 4pm EST, the late Ranger game at Seattle will end about 1am EST. The Yankees will be watching the TEX/SEA game, while they eat dinner. Texas will be flying home, in the wee hours of the morning of game one, while the Yankees lay asleep in their beds. Funny how MLB set that up.
