Last time the Red Sox (15-10) met the Yankees (13-11) they swept them at Fenway, with Jacoby Ellsbury's steal of home capping a weekend dominated by Boston. The Sox are hoping for similar results this time around, especially after dropping 3 of 4 to the Rays. This is Boston's first ever trip to the new Yankee Stadium and they are hoping to get things started right, beginning tonight. The Sox send Jon Lester (1-2, 5.40 ERA) to the mound, and he'll be opposed by the Yankees Phil Hughes (1-0, 0.00 ERA) who is making just his second start of the season. Hopefully the Red Sox can shake off the funk that followed thm all weekend at the Trop and return to the great baseball they were playing prior to their series with the Rays. Let's go Red Sox!

Lester needs a dominant outing tonight. Would be huge.
I am SO tired of hearing about their new stadium. I just really wanna kick their ass in it.
It cost tax payers money, and all anyone wants to talk about is how great it is.
I hear the Mets stadium is slightly worse and cost
$800,000,000
instead of
$1,400,000,000
Let's spank these fools!
I love that they aren't selling it out.
Weird to have a 2 game series with the Yanks.
If there is anytime for Ortiz to hit a HR it is this series...vs. the Yankees and that RF area is home run city.
For real. Let's hope so.
Eck is filling in for Remy!! This will be amazing!
Dave Roberts in studio for NESN also....wow! So good.
Damn I wish I was local...
As you know I've been calling for Eck in the booth for a while....looking forward to it.
That said, hope nothing is seriously wrong with Remy.

Damon and Teizshxerra homered to make it 4-3 btw
Ortiz up with 2 on and 1 out. HR would be HUGE
double play. That was horrible
Toronto has not played the Sox, Yankees, or DRays so far this year....now it all makes sense.

Fucking Yankee Stadium No one there - No one can afford a fucking 2300 seat.
I wouldn't pay 2300 to watch - fucking anything really.
Especially if that shit is live and in HD.
Ellbury nice steal - to 3rd on bad throw
knock down pitch to Pedroia! man...
HORRIBLE STRIKE CALL!!!
Why is the stadium 3/4 empty?
ANOTHER SHIT CALL on Pedroia
that was awful. He strikes out
Walking Ortiz to get to bailey
THEY DID NOT SELL OUT!!! I loved that Steve Phillips pointed that out that they didn't sell out on top of it being a rain delay game. PA-THE-TIC
Yankees Suck
Hey DK - Did you hear the shout out at the end of the Doodle Cast?
This is starting to get too interesting....
6-4 Sox, 1 on, 1 out in the bottom of the 8th.
Not yet Doodle, looking forward to it though. Much appreciated in advance.
first shaky outing by Ramirez...leadoff HR...out...walk. Papelbon coming in
If you just stopped rooting for old Adams Division teams I may actually start like having you around here!
I can't even watch
PAPS is Closer By Fucking Heart Attack this year.

I hope you are all leaving work early tomorrow to watch manu vs the gunners.
Posada strained a hammy

My Impression of Posada
Never any doubt.
We need some fucking more runs though.
Bob's discount Furniture - One guy I don't miss
Aceves is on his 5th inning of relief. Impressive
Bases loaded for Sox, 2 down, top of the 9th, up 6-4...
Some insurance here wouldn't hurt my feelings, that's for sure.
Eck is pretty entertaining....he has not disappointed a bit tonight.
He seems to be pro-Masterson in the pen.
agree
I am pro masterson in the Pen too...with Dice K healthy that is. Penny's spot will be taken by Smoltz, Bowdoin, or Clay if he stinks
Test of the Emergency Broadcast System going on right now.
