Rather than use words to describe the Boston Red Sox 3-run comeback to beat the New York Yankees last night, I will let this video highlight reel do my talking.
An absolutely great comeback last night by the local nine. While Nick Green did lead off the inning with a single, it was the at-bat of Dustin Pedroia that seemed to change that inning as he won the battle in a 10-pitch at-bat. As Michael Kay on the YES broadcast said “That was a MVP at-bat.”

Is it wrong that I absolutely loved Penny’s plunking of A-Rod?
There is absolutely nothing wrong loving that. I was glad that he did it. It was much better than MDC throwing inside on Jeter.
