BOSTON -- We are only a month into baseball season, and already the Yankees-Red Sox rivalry is turning out to be everything we thought it would be. And more. It's a lot.
The Red Sox won 17 of their first 19, and they were already making the Yankees and their fans watch the scoreboard as if it were September. Aaron Boone, the rookie Yankees manager, was asked if he was noticing what the Red Sox were doing.
"It's hard not to notice," Boone said.
The Red Sox were 17-2.
