Game 122: Starting the Final Forty

With forty games to play in 2009, the Red Sox beat multi trillionaire AJ Burnett like he stole something, thumping the Yankee starter for 9 runs over 5 innings on the way to a 14-1 triumph at Fenway Park today. Alex Gonzalez (?), Kevin Youkilis, and David Ortiz homered off of Burnett, and Youkilis homered again off of reliever Alfredo Aceves to compound the damage.

Boston plays New York again tomorrow night, then welcomes Chicago and Toronto to Fenway next week. Boston currently leads the wild card race by 1 1/2 games over the Rangers.
