My Comment: Thank you New York Yankees for wanting this 3 hour 27 minute rain delayed game to be played. Once again, the Boston Red Sox have swept the Yankees in New York and do it in dramatic fashion. Boston will not be denied! Every Red Sox starter was in on the fun - everyone had at least one hit and eight scored the runs. Now Boston is two games ahead of the Yankees in the AL East. Next stop, Toronto!

BOSTON: Starting Pitcher: Josh Beckett; Winning Pitcher: Josh Beckett (5)
NEW YORK YANKEES: Starting Pitcher: C. C. Sabathia; Losing Pitcher: C. C. Sabathia
NEW YORK YANKEES: Homerun: Curtis Granderson

RED SOX: Wins 36, Losses 26, Percentage: .581

Next game: Friday 10 June 2011, 4:07 p.m.PT/7:07 p.m.ET, Toronto Blue Jays, Rogers Centre, Clay Buchholz
