BOS 4, NYY 3: 8-0

Still want to trade Brad Penny? Although Penny did not get the win last night he went six scoreless innings only walking one batter and struck out five. Boston rallied in the eighth inning, how fitting, to beat the New York Yankees 4-3 to start the season 8-0 against their arch rivals. J.D. Drew sparked the three run eighth inning with a RBI single, Jason Bay also had an RBI knock and Mike Lowell gave the Red Sox the lead with a sac fly to left field. Jonathan Papelbon closed out the ninth for his 16th save of the season and David Ortiz hit a solo homer - his third in five games - in the the second inning. Star of the Game - Takashi Saito The bullpen has come up huge for Boston as of late and Saito went 1 1/3 innings allowing no runs, one hit, no walks and struck out two batters. If there is one major difference between New York and Boston so far it's that the Red Sox bullpen is far superior to the Yankees pen. Next Game - 6/12 vs. Philadelphia Phillies -...
