In his first career start in Fenway Park (and second career appearance), Joba Chamberlain pitched an amazing game, limiting the Red Sox to 0 runs on 3 hits and 1 walk in 7 innings, picking up his third victory of the season. He struck out 9 hitters.

The lone run in this game came on a Jason Giambi, two out, RBI single in the third inning that scored A-Rod. Besides that, the Yankees scattered 9 hits and walked once. Bobby Abreu and A-Rod each had 2 hits.

Kyle Farnsworth started the eighth and... well... it didn't go so hot. He allowed a single to Jed Lowrie before getting Jason Varitek to foul out. Unfortunately, Coco Crisp followed with a single to put runners on first and second with 1 out for Red Sox leadoff man Jacoby Ellsbury. Girardi decided not to play with the lead and opted to go straight to Mo.

Rivera ended the threat by striking out Ellsbury and inducing a ground out to end the inning. Besides allowing a single to Kevin Youkilis, Mo elicited a fly out from David Ortiz and struck out both Mike Lowell and J.D. Drew to end it.

Tomorrow, Andy Pettitte (11-7, 3.86) will face Tim Wakefield (6-7, 3.69) at 3:55 PM ET.
