The New York Yankees and Boston Red Sox are as close as you get to a heavyweight title fight.
No, not a Deontay Wilder and Anthony Joshua-matchup but a more similar bout to that of Joe Frazier and Muhammad Ali. Simply put, these two teams hate each other just as Ali and Frazier once did. The difference, however, is that the Yankees and Sox face off 19 times a season — and when that’s the case, certain things will get messy.
As it stands the Yankees are five games back in the AL East but just three back in the loss column.
