Game 18, at Fenway

Today is game 2 of the 3 game series. Burnett vs. Beckett.

Yankees get off to an early lead in the first scoring 2 off Swisher single and Posada single. Then the Yankees score 2 more in the third off a Cano home run with Teixeira on base. 4-0. In the forth the Yankees score 2 more again off a Cano double with Jeter and Teixeira on base. 6-0

Red Sox didn't score till the forth and they made it count, scoring 5. All right 6-5, could be worse. In the fifth the Red Sox score 3 more to make it 6-8.

Damon ties it up in the sixth with a home run with Jeter on. 8-8. In the bottom of the sixth the Red Sox get another to make it 8-9. Then in the seventh the Yankees score 2 more on a error for a Damon hit to make it 10-9 but they get them back in the bottom for a 10-12 score.

Cano hit another home run in the eighth to make it 11-12. Red Sox get 4. And that's how it ends, ladies and gentlemen, 11-16.

Burnett was great in 3, lost it all in the forth. Pitching all together was not very good, for either team. 27 runs in a game is not good pitching at all.

Jeter went 2-4 with 2 walks. Teixeira was walked 5 times, good on base percentage. Cano went 3-6 with 2 home runs and 5 RBIs. Posada went 2-4 with a walk and an RBI.

Garnder went 1-5 and struck out. Come on Rodriguez, get better faster!
