The Daily Yankeeland - 8/26
The Yankees and Red Sox start a HUGE three game series tonight at the Stadium. Barring some kind of ALCS miracle, it will be the Red Sox' last visit to this incarnation of Yankee Stadium.
Tim Wakefield (7-8, 3.67) comes off the DL tonight to start the series opener against Andy Pettitte (13-9, 4.17). Wednesday night is the real wildcard game with Paul Byrd (8-11,4.61) , acquired from the Indians, going up against Sidney Ponson (7-4, 4.67). Byrd is 1-1, 5.40 in his two starts with Boston, while Ponson is 4-1, 3.88 in nine starts since joining the Yankees.
Thursday's finale features the best pitching match up, with Jon Lester (12-5, 3.49) facing Mike Mussina (16-7, 3.45). Lester has allowed just two earned runs, in 16.1 innings, in his last two starts against the Yankees. Moose tossed six scoreless innings in a 2-1, July 5 win over Boston.
Mike Lupica says it's time for A-Rod to step up.
The Daily News and Star Ledger look back at the Yankees-Red Sox rivalry at the Stadium.
Joba Chamberlain continues his way back to the Yankees.
Jason Bay readies himself for the rivalry.
Ken Rosenthal thinks the Yankees' problems could overlap in 2009.
The Princeton Packet talks to recently-dealt Ross Ohlendorf.
The Yankees have renewed their agreement with Class 'A', Charleston for another four years.
