Red Sox 10, Yankees 1

Sometimes the best comes early. Jeter's homer in the first--a towering shot to the blacked-out seats in center--was the high point of the afternoon.

The night before the game, I surmised to SunDevil Joe that, if nothing else, the match-up between Wang and Beckett would probably decide the Cy Young race. Now I'm sure of it. Wang was living on borrowed time even when sitting on a two-hitter; he consistently failed to find the strike zone with his sinker, and everything up was hammered.

The division would have been a nice prize.

I'm just worried about securing the WC right now. Minnesota did a wonderful job of just rolling over for the Tigers.

Tonight, a win is needed to keep a stiff-arm on Detroit as the climb closer to the wild card.

What no Trojan talk?
