Red Sox Sweep Yankees, 9 To 2

Red Sox highlight: One homerun
Red Sox lowlight: One pickoff error

My Comment: Boston finally gets another sweep and very nice that it is against the Yankees. However, one retiring Yankee was honored at Fenway Park tonight - Mariano Rivera - for his outstanding career as a closer. And the Red Sox were gracious enough to give him the night off with their decisive victory over the Yankees. Now Boston's magic number is four.

My Comment: No sweep for Boston in this series, but the team goes for the series win tomorrow. Baserunning was horrible today by the Red Sox - the game should have been much closer. Need the wins as Tampa Bay is surging and the Red Sox only has a game and a half lead in the AL East.

As John Farrell returns to Toronto for the first time since becoming Boston's manager, let's hope the Red Sox do him proud and play as well against the Blue Jays as they did against the Yankees. Or should I say "play even better"?
