Yanks' defeat Red Sox 3-2, take series


The Yankees were able to take three games out of four against their rivals, the Red Sox, after defeating them 3-2 on Sunday.

Ivan Nova pitched excellent to earn his first win of the season. Nova had most of his pitches working, especially his big breaking curve ball. He worked into and out of jams all night and got a big ovation when he walked off the mound.

The Yankee offense was powered by Carlos Beltran, who hit a go-ahead two-run home run on a hanging curveball from Felix Doubront.

The Yankees will enjoy an off-day tomorrow before beginning a two game set with the Cubs.

Sabathia, Yankees lose to Red Sox 4-2


The Yankees were unable to come up with back-to-back wins as they were defeated 4-2 on Friday night.

C.C. Sabathia looked very good, but one bad inning cost the Yankees the game. Sabathia left a hanging breaking ball over them middle of the plate which was hit for a three-run home run. Most of Sabathia's pitches were working well tonight as he was missing a lot of bats.

The Yankee offense was powered by Alfonso Soriano and Kelly Johnson as they both drove in runs.

The Yankees and Red Sox will continue their four-game set tomorrow afternoon.
