The greatest and most intense rivalry in all of sports is about to be renewed, but before the New York Yankees venture into Boston tomorrow, they had to dismiss the troubled Rays of Tampa Bay.

The Yankees left in style slamming four home runs in a 5-3 victory in Yankee Stadium. Tampa Bay starting pitcher Andy Sonnanstine was on the wrong end of all four of those homers. Johnny Damon’s solo shot put the Yankees up in the sixth after Mark Teixeira’s bomb in the first inning tied it at 1-1.

Nick Swisher’s shot in the second tied the game once again in the second at 2-2, after the Yankees gave up early runs. Derek Jeter also piled on in the eighth inning with a solos shot to lead off that inning.

The New Yankee Stadium has now seen over 100 home runs in only 29 games and is becoming one of the MLB’s premier hitter’s parks. Grab some New York Yankees tickets and try for yourself to try and shag some homers.

David Wright’s two run double, and incidentally his fourth hit of the night, broke 1-1 tie in the 10th inning on Friday as the NL East #2 Mets defeated the basement-dwelling Nationals in Washington 3-1. For the Mets, the win snapped a three game losing streak.

Luis Castillo led off the 10th inning for the Mets with a single off of Nats reliever Joel Hanrahan before Carlos Beltran walked. Wright then did his thing when he lined a 2-2 pitch into the right centerfiled gap to score both Mets base runners. This four hits, match his single game high.

Sean Green threw a perfect ninth inning for New York before Francisco Rodriquez polished off his 15th save opportunity of the season to remain perfect in his scoreless 10th.

Washington has dropped 9 out of their last 10 games and have fallen even further down the food chain in the NL East. The Mets are sitting three games out of first behind the Phillies, and would miss the playoff by one game in the Wild Card, if the season ended today.

Grab some Mets tickets now and enjoy the summer!

Though Livan Hernandez had the flu this week, he was able to shut down the Nationals by throwing seven shutout innings while, his offense supported him with seven runs.

“I was sick and threw up before the game,” Hernandez said. “I don’t care. I like to pitch. I didn’t sleep good last night. … I didn’t feel good, but I like to pitch, no matter what.”

With the much needed win, the Mets improved to 7-2 on the season against Washington. It was a huge series victory for New York who now must play host to league-leading Philadelphia for a three game series, before heading across town to face the Yankees.

Both of these series are bound to be phenomenal. Grab your New York Mets tickets today and join go out and meet the Mets!

The Yankees players and coaches were quick to admonish Texas pitcher Scott Feldman on Wednesday for throwing a phenomenal game and keeping the Yankee offense at bay, while the Rangers offense did their job and left with the 4-2 win. Feldman picked up his 5th win of the season and is becoming the ace of the staff.

Feldman gave up six hits in six innings to the Yankees (mostly in his final inning) as the Yankees baserunners were just too spread out to cause any real damage.

With one month to go before the All-Star break, both teams sit atop their divisions, with the Yankees deadlocked with Red Sox in the East. The Rangers lead the AL West by four and a half games over the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim.

The AL East is already shaping up to be fight. Grab some Yankees tickets and join the show.
