Red Sox Clinch Season Opening Night
The Boston Red Sox clinch their season opener with a 9 to 7 win over their rivals the New York Yankees. It didn't look good for the Red Sox in the first couple innings and was no where near a good start for Josh Beckett who allowed 5 runs to score in 4 3/4 innings played. Kevin Youkilis hit a 2 run triple in the 6th inning. CC Sabathia also allowed 5 runs to score. Jorge Posada hit a home run in the top of the 2nd and hit an rbi in the 7th to increase the Yankees lead 7 to 5. Dustin Pedroia hit a 2 run home run over the green monster to tie the game at 7 in the 7th. Again in the 7th, Posada dropped a pitch and Kevin Youkilis scored for the Red Sox to take the lead at 8 to 7. In the 9th Jonathan Papelbon closed and the Red Sox won 9 to 7 over the Yankees.
