Red Sox 10, Yankees 1
Chien-Ming Wang lost for the first time in six starts on Saturday. (Winslow Townson/AP)
By Bryan Hoch / MLB.com
Chien-Ming Wang hung with Josh Beckett for five innings, but he ran into trouble in the sixth, leaving after two outs and setting the stage for a loss that dropped the Yankees back to 5 1/2 games behind the Red Sox in the AL East and 2 1/2 games ahead of the Tigers in the Wild Card. Five pitchers appeared in a four-run seventh inning that put the game out of reach.
