Game Thread: New York Yankees vs. Boston Red Sox 7/16

We’re back in the Bronx and back inside Yankee Stadium for the second of a three-game weekend set between the New York Yankees and the Boston Red Sox. After facing a tough knuckle ball pitcher in Steven Wright last night and with a tough lefty looming in the distance tomorrow in David Price this may be as close to a must-win for the Yankees as possible. No pressure as the Yankees send CC Sabathia to the mound this afternoon looking for that victory while the Red Sox counter with Eduardo Rodriguez. The game will be played at 4:05 pm ET inside Yankee Stadium and can be seen on the YES Network, Fox Sports One and MLB TV.
