Boston Red Sox vs New York Yankees Post
Game Recap
Final Score: Red Sox 11 Yankees 1
After snapping their five-game losing
streak on Friday night behind a strong start from C.C. Sabathia, the
New York Yankees go destroyed by the Boston Red Sox on Saturday
night. The 11-1 loss moves the Yankees to (31-24) on the season, and
puts them behind the Red Sox in the division by two games.
Yankees Starter Phil Hughes once again
struggled, as his inconsistency this season has been remarkable. The
loss is Hughes' fourth of the season, and his ERA is now at 5.37 on
the season. The third inning was the downfall of Hughes, as Mike Carp
got the Red Sox on the board in the third inning with a RBI double.
After Joe Girardi elected to walk David Ortiz to face Mike Napoli,
Napoli made Hughes pay hitting a Grand Slam to Right Center Field.
Hughes finished the game going just 4.1 innings before getting
pulled.
