August 8 game

Josh Beckett gave up 11 hits and seven runs in only 4 and 2/3 innings, and the Red Sox offense could not pick him up as the Yankees dominated the Sox 7-2. Derek Jeter passed Babe Ruth on the all-time hits list, as he knocked in three runs with two hits. Ryan Mosely shut down the Sox to earn his second win of the season. I have to be mad at Beckett, as the Sox needed a win from their ace and did not get it, but the Red Sox offense needs to pick up the pace.

Today, Jon Lester will pitch for the Sox. Lester, who has lost his last four starts, will look to earn a split in the series. I hope this guy can stop his skid and pitch well.

Trivia
Mosely had to start due to an injury to A.J. Burnett.
