"Maybe the AL East won't be a two-horse race after all. When the Yankees arrive at Fenway Park today, they will discover the Red Sox have a pulse. After winning four straight against the Angels, the Sox are now 15-14 and above .500 for the first time since Opening Day. Their 11-6 victory over the Angels last night punctuated a sweep of the Halos that has the Sox ready to chase the Yankees and Rays in the division, now 6½ games behind the Rays and five behind the Yankees. "We're grinding," second baseman Dustin Pedroia said. "We know we haven't played well early. We're to a point now where we don't want to let the two teams, the three teams [including the Blue Jays] in front of us get too far away. They're pretty darn good so we need to play better."" http://www.nypost.com/p/sports/yankees/red_hot_but_still_in_fourth_place_xZEhK5c4PsRfrdHvmKsGAI
