NEW YORK – The Orioles finish their disappointing season this afternoon with Ryan Mountcastle as the designated hitter, possibly in his last game with the team, depending whether they tender him a contract in his last year of arbitration eligibility.

Coby Mayo is at first base. Dylan Beavers is in left field and Tyler O’Neill is in right.

Mayo is slashing .410/.521/.769 (16-for-39) with two doubles, four home runs, six RBIs, seven walks and nine runs scored in 14 games since Sept. 13.

Kyle Bradish makes his sixth start, with seven runs and 18 hits allowed in 28 innings. He’s walked 10, struck out 39 and surrendered two home runs.

The Yankees see Bradish again after he held them to one run and two hits with nine strikeouts in six innings. He owns a 2.90 ERA and 1.419 WHIP in six career starts against New York.

The Orioles are 36-44 on the road and 75-86 overall.

Luis Gil, last year’s American League Rookie of the Year, has posted a 3.29 ERA and 1.442 WHIP in 10 starts since returning from right lat strain. He’s surrendered only three home runs in 52 innings.

Gil has three quality starts this month out of his four outings. His four career starts against the Orioles produced a 3.66 ERA and 1.220 WHIP in 19 2/3 innings.

The Yankees have given their starters an average of 6.09 runs of support per nine innings, most in the majors.

This is a must-win game for the Yankees, who remain tied with the Blue Jays for first place. Toronto controls its destiny.
