The Red Sox, fresh off a thrilling and nerve-wracking Game 1 win against the irrepressible Yankees, will turn to the most Bronx-bitten member of their staff when David Price (16-7, 3.58 ERA) looks to overcome his demons and pitch Boston to a 2-0 series lead tonight at Fenway Park (8:15 p.m., TBS).
About Game 2: Price has been absolutely murdered by the Yankees this year, and there’s no way around that. Over 15 innings against the Bombers this year, he has an unsightly 10.43 ERA. On the bright side, the worst of it came in Yankee Stadium, where his ERA was 12.
