Rivals

Yeah, the Yankees and Red Sox have a rivalry (although it has always seemed to me that the rivalry is more important to the Red Sox and their fans than it is to the Yankees). And the Dodgers-Giants rivalry can get downright nasty at times. But the most important rivalry in baseball, at least in historical terms, is that between to Yankees and the Dodgers.

The Bronx Bombers versus the Boys of Summer )

Up in San Francisco, the Giants took two out of three from the Sox, so they remain 1½ games back as they get ready to host the Dodgers tonight at SBC Park. Should be a good series. So many interesting games lately. Tonight it's Odalis Perez, who's had a couple of good outings recently, against the Giant's Kirk Rueter, who hasn't.
