Yankees Rout Red Sox

BOSTON: 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 - 0 4 1

NY YANKEES: 0 0 1 0 0 1 1 2 x - 5 9 0

Another day, another New York Yankees win, another shutout loss for the Boston Red Sox. Boston has been experiencing the wrong type of streak for the past five games. Five losses in a row and runs have been hard to come by for the Red Sox recently. They have to get back on the hitting track. Boston's road trip ends tomorrow in Yankee Stadium and it would a great boost if they avoid being swept and head back to Fenway on a positive note. This losing skid has to stop and the climb back up the AL East has to start. Runs, Boston, runs!
