Yankee should today and M. Riveria will be all time save leader.
With Rivera still needing one save to become the all-time major league leader, the AL East-leading Yankees host a Minnesota Twins club that has dropped eight straight in a Monday afternoon makeup game.
Rivera tied Trevor Hoffman with his 601st save in Saturday's 7-6 victory over Toronto, but was denied a chance to move into sole possession of first place with Sunday's 3-0 loss. New York (91-60) remained 4 1/2 games ahead of second-place Boston and its magic number to clinch the East shrunk to seven with 11 games to play.

jason- Thanks for the lineups. I didn't see them yet on mlb.com. What site did you get them from?
Even though it would never come out publicly, I think the Yankees tanked the game on Sunday to make sure they wouldn't be put in the situation to have to use Mariano Rivera to get the save. They want to make sure he breaks the save record in Yankee Stadium.
