BRONX BOMBERS start Post All-Star HARDBALL in the HUB versus the AL East leading CARMINES....BOMBERS can ill afford to get Double-Digits behind CARMINES..."WEEKEND BENDERS" Post Mid-Summers Classic #PINSTRIPESbiz #BoSoxbiz

The New York Yankees will start Friday's Game in Fenway six games back with little margin for error in  the second half. The Red Sox are primed and ready to put their dawgs on the Gas Pedal and speed off into the AL East Crown and October Baseball. Say for instance the Yanks get swept they would leave the Hub some nine games out and I know its not August but that would be catastrophic to the Bombers and Bronx Zoo Nation. The Red Sox could put early doubt in the minds of the Yanks if they come up big in this series. Right out the gate pressure to get that "W"...Yanks @ Bo Sox three-piece!

NYY Sabathia (9-8) vs BOS Lester (8-6)

The Yanks will go with old reliable Friday Night as the Red Sox Doubront who has pitched well of late.  Kuroda will get the Ball Saturday as he will face John Lackey who is slowing getting back to his Halos Form. Of Course the Sunday Night Night Cap will be Two of the Best Lefties not in the 2013 Mid Summers Classic in Sabathia and Lester.
