Game Notes: This is what baseball is all about, Red Sox-Yankees, primetime, Randy Johnson vs. Josh Beckett. The Sox and Yanks are both scorching hot, coming off convincing sweeps over Texas and Baltimore respectively, and look to carry over their winning ways for this battle of division foes. The two clubs are locked atop the AL East with the Yanks leading by mere percentage points. What makes this rivalry even more special is that the Red Sox lead the head-to-head series by only one game since 2002. And the pitching matchups only get better Wednesday with a rejuvination theme- Mike Mussina vs. Curt Schilling. It’s on.
