“Can the Red Sox catch the Yankees?” isn’t even a question anyone should be asking right now. Until the Red Sox show they’re capable of playing good baseball for consistent stretches, there’s no need to start scoreboard watching.
But even if the division isn’t on the line this weekend, baseball is always just a little bit more fun when the Red Sox and Yankees are playing each other on a summer evening. We’ll get three of those this weekend and I plan on enjoying them, even Red Sox starters have other plans. Talk about what you want and be good to one another.
