The Yankees were unable to defeat the Boston Red Sox on Saturday as they lost the high intensity game 8-6. The game was delayed over two hours due to inclement weather.

C.C. Sabathia struggled during this game as he allowed 6 runs on 8 hits in 6 innings of work. He struck out 6 and walked 2. Sabathia allowed three runs in the very first inning. He exited with 104 pitches thrown, in which 69 of them were for strikes.

The Yankees were trailing the whole game as the Red Sox scored three in the third and three in the fifth. Mark Teixeira was facing his good friend Vincente Padilla (Joking) in the bottom of the eighth inning with one on and two outs. The score was 6-4. Mark Teixeira was ahead in the count 2-0 when Padilla threw a 51 MPH curveball in for a strike. The next pitch Teixeira drilled a 2-1 fastball into the right field stands to tie the game at 6.

The Red Sox would answer back in the ninth after Curtis Granderson misplayed a ball, which probably cost them the game.

The Yankees lost a touch one tonight, but these two teams will play the finale tomorrow night.
