Red Sox Memories: Jason Varitek and Alex Rodriguez brawl for it all

It’s no secret that the Red Sox and Yankees have one of, if not, the biggest rivalry in all of sports. Some could even say that it dates back to the days of the American Revolution.

It’s a tale as old as time.

In the early days of baseball, it was Boston that sat atop the throne until that awful day that saw Babe Ruth get shipped to the Big Apple.
