Sixty-seven games into the season, the Yankees have somewhat weathered a storm of injuries.
At 37-30, New York is third in the American League East and three games behind first-place Boston.
They are seven games over .500 despite missing Derek Jeter, Alex Rodriguez and Michael Pineda all season. Mark Teixeira, Curtis Grandson and Kevin Youkilis have also missed significant time with injuries.
Through Wednesday, the average ratings for Yankee games on the YES Network were down 38% compared to the same period last season.
The drop is even more remarkable when you consider that last year's ratings were the Yankees' lowest since 2003.
