The Yankees in Interleague Play in National League stadiums


The Yankees' uninspired play in Arizona last night reminded me of Interleague 2007, when everyone was up in arms over the Yanks getting their rear ends handed to them by the then-mediocre Colorado Rockies and San Francisco Giants. This subsequently made me wonder how the Yankees have fared during the last few years at National League ballparks.












There aren't really any conclusions to be drawn from this, as I imagine most American League teams fare worse on the road in NL cities, but it is somewhat noteworthy that the Yankees -- despite their frequently cited overall Interleague success -- do not tend to play very good baseball against the National League on the road.
