Yankees Blow the Red Sox Away.
Monday, August 9th, 2010On the night where Dustin Moseley had to replace a hurt A. J. Burnett and the Yankees defeated the Boston Red Sox 7 – 2 in front of a national telecast of Sunday night baseball, another record was passed in Yankee lore. Derek Jeter who also drove in three runs took over as all-time hit leader for the New York Yankees passing the Bambino, Babe Ruth.
Lance Berkman didn’t hit Alex Rodriguez again, however he did hit 2 doubles to start to win over the New York Yankee fans to his side. Teixeira had the limelight also becoming just the fourth person ever to hit a minimum of twenty-five homers in each of his first 8 yrs.
A day after being struck in the left leg during batting practice, with Berkman at the plate, Rodriguez was back in the lineup The bruise had passed and A-Rod felt so good he stole a base. Not since May 8th has he stolen a base. Together with his 600th homer hit up against the Toronto Blue Jays, he has now added his 300th stolen base of his career.
