Red Sox highlight: One homerun
Red Sox lowlight: Starting pitching

My Comment: The Red Sox loss to the Yankees is an unwelcome blemish on this day of celebration. Fenway Park is 100 years old today and unique among major league ball parks. Unfortunately, a repeat of the game result from 1912 was not to be on this historic afternoon. Let's do better tomorrow.

NY YANKEES: Starting Pitcher: Ivan Nova; Winning Pitcher: Ivan Nova
BOSTON: Starting Pitcher: Clay Buchholz; Losing Pitcher: Clay Buchholz (1)
NY YANKEES: Homeruns: Nick Swisher, Eric Chavez, Alex Rodriguez, Russell Martin
BOSTON: Homerun: David Ortiz (2)

Red Sox: Wins 4, Losses 9, Percentage: .308

Next game: Saturday 21 April 2012, 1:05 p.m.PT/4:05 p.m.ET, New York Yankees, Fenway Park, Felix Doubront
