Russell Martin hit, Curtis Granderson catch help Yankees take series from Red Sox; Burnett not bad

"Has a team ever been more excited about its starting pitcher taking a no-decision?

A.J. Burnett gave the Yankees a solid performance against the Red Sox, allowing the Bombers to pull out a 4-2 come-from-behind win at Fenway Park last night.

The Yankees took two of three this week, marking their first series win in five tries this season against the Red Sox.

"Coming into their place and taking two games," Nick Swisher said, "that's a big deal."

The Yankees won for only the fourth time in 15 games against the Red Sox this season, yet the two clubs are tied in the loss column, separated by only a half-game in the American League East with less than four weeks to play in the regular season.

"We didn't play very well the first nine games against them," Joe Girardi said. "They beat us up pretty good, but we've pitched a lot better against them and our at-bats have been a lot better.""
