The Boston Red Sox-New York Yankees rivalry doesn't have the same juice as it once did now that the Red Sox have been out of playoff contention for a while.
Still, Tuesday's matchup will pique attention in the battle of the Northeast.
This one means everything for the Yankees, which are trying to track down the red-hot Toronto Blue Jays in the American League East. Currently, they're one-and-a-half games behind Toronto in a race that's sure to go on until late September.
So far, it's been a pitchers' duel between Boston's Rick Porcello and New York's Michael Pineda.
