Niether starting pitcher would be around to see the finish of game 2.  The
Red Sox drew first blood on a two run home run from Manny Ramirez in the 2nd
ining.  The Yankees clawed back with one in the 3rd and two in the 5th to take
a 3-2 lead.  The Red Sox tied the score in the 6th inning on a solo home run
from catcher Jason Varitek.  The game remained tied until the 11th inning, when
the Red Sox scored four runs off of Yankee relievers Farnsworth and Rivera.  The
Yankees could only muster up one run in the bottom of the 11th innings and lost
7-4.  Robinson Cano went 3 for 4 with a single, double and home run in the loss.

top of the 9th inning, the Yankees took the lead on a clutch two run home run from

rally for 6 runs and take a 13-8 lead.  The Yankees battled back for one in the 8th
