A month ago, a division title seemed like a mere formality for the New York Yankees and a distant dream for the Tampa Bay Rays.

Suddenly the division is hardly secure for the Yankees. The Rays get six chances in the next two weekends to create more pressure in the race, starting Friday night when the American League East foes get together for the opener of a three-game series in St. Petersburg, Fla.

The Yankees began last month with a 14 1/2-game lead over the third-place Rays. Now the lead is down to six games and second-place Tampa Bay has 33 games remaining while the Yankees have 31.
