The Yankees-Red Sox rivalry could (re)gain some steam this year

For New York Yankees and Boston Red Sox fans, the drive to win against the other is thrilling and exciting. The rivalry is among the fiercest in American professional sports, and it has helped build (and tarnish) legacies and reputations.

Babe Ruth, Lou Gehrig, Joe DiMaggio, Ted Williams, Carlton Fisk, Carl Yastrzemski, Reggie Jackson, Jim Rice, Ron Guidry, Roger Clemens, Nomar Garciaparra, Derek Jeter, Pedro Martínez, David Ortiz, Manny Ramírez, Andy Pettitte, Mark Teixeira, Alex Rodriguez, Mariano Rivera, Mookie Betts, Aaron Judge … so many stars have been linked to this rivalry that naming just a few would be unfair.
