RED SOX GO TO 8-0 VS. YANKS, TAKE TWO-GAME LEAD IN AL EAST

After a come-from-behind 4-3 win over the New York Yankees Thursday night, the Boston Red Sox are 36-24 and hold a two-game lead over New York in the American League East Division race. Boston trailed 3-1 before scoring three runs in the bottom of the eighth inning, with Jason Bay’s bases-loaded single driving in the winning run.


Boston is a perfect 8-0 this season against New York, who fell to 34-26. The 33-27 Detroit Tigers lead the AL Central, while the 34-25 Texas Rangers top the West. In the National League, the 35-23 Philadelphia Phillies head the East, the 33-27 Milwaukee Brewers barely lead the Central, and the 40-21 Los Angeles Dodgers are dominating the West.
