The Boston Red Sox hopes for a morale boosting victory when they play host to the New York Yankees on Sunday evening in the current Major League Baseball season.The home-team Boston Red Sox (1-7) is considered the underdog in this game due to the better record of the New York Yankees (5-3) in the young MLB season.
Starting six straight defeats this year, the Boston Red Sox hope they can jump-start their winning run by defeating their arch-rival New York Yankees at home.To defeat the favored New York Yankees team, the Boston Red Sox needs to play solid as team and capitalized on the energy provided by their home fans.
Josh Beckett, the starting starting pitcher of the Red Sox also need to wake up from his slump and play big for his team to defeat the visiting Yankees team.Red Sox second baseman Dustin Pedroia also needs to play good for his team to defeat the Yankees in their scheduled MLB game.
The home-team Red Sox might face a tough challenge against the Yankees but they can still prevail and upset the latter if they play with their A-game and come up with 110 percent effort come game-time.The visiting Yankees and defeat the Red Sox and avoid an upset if they can play huge all game-long.
The Yankees are in for a good start for the team and could continue it if they learn to play as a team in this game.To defeat the home-team Red Sox, the Yankees ace pitcher CC Sabathia needs to have a good game for his team.The Yankees second baseman Robinson Cano also need to play good for his team by scoring runs to bring down the Red Sox.
Cano is 41 for 100 with six homers, 12 doubles and 25 RBIs in his last 23 games in Boston.The Yankees have all the reasons to win this game all they need is to play their cards well and come up with a good game-plan on game day.
