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.

Five homers put Yankees past Sox' 7-4

The Yankees were able to defeat the Red Sox 7-4 on Saturday after blasting five home runs in the game.

Hiroki Kuroda started for the Yankees and he pitched very well to pick up his second win of the season. Kuroda had most of his pitches working as he kept the Red Sox hitters off-balance throughout the game. He struck out five batters, but walked three in six and a third innings of work. He allowed four earned runs in the game.

Carlos Beltran, Brian McCann, Alfonso Soriano and Kelly Johnson all hit home runs in their 7-4 win.

The Yankees and Red Sox will conclude their four-game set tomorrow night.
