BOSTON -- Within the rivalry, there have always been rivalries. They are the mini-dramas that help sustain this nearly century-old play known as Yankees-Red Sox. Even when the teams don't finish 1-2 in the standings, a phenomenon that has occurred only 19 times through the 98 seasons since Babe Ruth switched sides, debates have raged over Joe DiMaggio vs. Ted Williams, Thurman Munson vs. Carlton Fisk, Don Mattingly vs. Wade Boggs, Derek Jeter vs. Nomar Garciaparra, Roger Clemens vs. Pedro Martinez, Robinson Cano vs. Dustin Pedroia, Alex Rodriguez vs. David Ortiz, and on and on.
