Boston at New York

When these teams get together, sometimes you can throw the stats out the door. This is a heated heated rivalry, one in which they have exchanged blows and seem to alternate getting into eachother's heads. The Yankees dominated for awhile, beat up on Pedro when he was beating everyone else, but the Yank's, as he described, were his Daddy. The Sawx came back from a 3-0 deficit in the Championship round and got in the Yankees' heads. This season, Boston took the first eight games from the Bombers early in the season as it looked like the Yankees were just not as good as Boston. Then the Yanks woke up and have been the Yankees again since A-Rod rejoined the team and left Boston in the dust. They swept the Sox four straight in Fenway, then two of three in Boston, and have the upper hand once again. The Yanks are going to be focused here and get deep into the Sox's heads that they rule the AL once again and simply put, at this point in time the Yankees are the better team. At plus money at home, they Yankees are 31-9 over their last 40 games and they get the call here.
