The Yankees will play in October.
After completing their comeback against the Chicago White Sox, 3-2, on Tuesday night at Yankee Stadium, New York has stamped their place into the 2025 MLB postseason.

The Yankees will now enter play on Wednesday just 1.0 game behind Toronto.
Toronto holds the tiebreaker against the Yankees, so if both teams end the season with a similar record, the Blue Jays will win the division.
The Yankees finish the regular season at home, with two more against the White Sox before hosting the Orioles for a three-game set this weekend. The Blue Jays play two more against the Red Sox in Toronto before welcoming the Tampa Bay Rays for three this weekend.
