If there was any doubt about the Yankees-Red Sox being the best rivalry in baseball, last night's 5 1/2 hour, 15 inning marathon should put that debate to rest.

This game had a playoff like atmosphere from the first pinch and that intensity was there throughout the entire game.  Burnett and Beckett showed while they are both front line pitchers and the respective bullpens did a great job as well.

While I certainly like the final outcome, it genuinely was a shame somebody had to lose such a game.

This afternoon's game looks like there is a substantial advantage for the Yankees, but I have learned over the years, that baseball, more than any other support is unpredictable.

Let's go BOMBERS!!

Here are a few pics from the game:

Thanks George. I wasn't aware they were playing. My kids are supposed to be my Red Sox alarm clock, but they are on vacation now which means they are consumed by video games unaware of anything else.

We saw Sox in Baltimore in July, what a great game. The most interesting thing to me was watching Varitek warm up. He could throw from left field foul post all the way across the outfield to the far side of center field. Gotta be 400+ feet, right into the glove the guy didn't have to take a step, but he was 50 feet short throwing it back to him. I have never seen anyone throw that far.

Another great game today. 

Back to back shutouts from the Yanks for the first time since 2002.   :thumb:

Sure would be nice to complete the job with a win tomorrow night.

Still lots of season left, but the Yanks sure are looking good.

Did you have this message written waiting for the last pitch?   :nono:

Great series buddy.  I'm hoping the Sox can get back on track.  At least Tiger had a weekend.

Yanks beat the tar out of the Red Sox last night and I enjoyed every second of it! 

With one more win this weekend, I think the AL East will be all but decided.

Looks like today's game is heading in the opposite direction.

Yanks were spanked back hard today - ouch!

Would love to take tomorrow night's game and increase the lead.
