Despite bumps, bruises, slumps, struggles, and difficulties of scheduling, the Sox and Yanks now have, respectively, the top two records in MLB.
Meanwhile, Derek is up to .221—a 32 point increase in 4 games. Sheffield, too, seems to have found his groove (now at .287, 5 hr).
And, finally, congratulations to Mariano Rivera, on his 300th save (including 23 against the Sox, if you’re counting).
I love your blog – you have a smooth writing style.
