The New York Yankees and the Boston Red Sox are back at it
again today in the third of their four-game set this weekend inside Fenway
Park. What a start to the series we were treated to on Thursday night although
Yankees fans everywhere were left shaking their heads at the end of the night.
Friday night we watched two young guns go at it head-to-head and today we see a
pesky old friend named David Price. Happy, happy. Joy, joy. Or as I like to
say; sarcasm, sarcasm. Opposing the Red Sox ace on the mound today for the
Yankees will be Bryan Mitchell.
Mitchell will be making his third start of the season this
afternoon inside Fenway Park after a great debut followed by some struggles
last time out against the Dodgers. Mitchell allowed six runs, although only two
of them were earned runs, on eight hits in just 2.1 innings pitched.
Price on the other hand is red hot posting a 7-0 record in
his last seven starts with a 2.16 ERA. Price is pushing the Red Sox to the
postseason and to an AL East Division title but he will have to improve on his
1-2 record and 7.79 ERA against New York this season to do so.
The game will be played at 1:05 pm ET inside Fenway Park,
let’s make sure all the doors are closed this time fellas, and can be seen on FOX.
It might also be able to be seen on MLB TV but I doubt it. Blackout rules still
confused me, I’ll admit it. Another
thing I’ll admit is despite the season and career statistics the Yankees have
against David Price I never feel truly comfortable or confident. We need a win
Yankees family, let’s not mince words, so let’s get a win against Price and the
Red Sox this afternoon. Go Yankees!
