I know It's only April but The Red Sox Sweep the Yankees (who suck)

The Red Sox had back-to-back-toback-to back homers last night as the Sox hung on to beat the Yankees and sweep the set, the first sch sweep at home for the Sox over the yanks since 1990. There is plenty of baseball left in the season, however, this was a great series. The best part is they get to do it again next weekend in the Bronx.

It was a classic baseball series. There was plenty of big pitching, blown opportunities, big hits, big homers, great plays. It was great. I can't wait for the weekend.

For now, the Jays come to Fenway. The jays are banged up and struggling a bit. I have contended that the Jays own the Sox, however the Sox took the last set ,2 out of three in Toronto.
