The rain could not dampen the enthusiasm of New York fans at Yankee Stadium.

New York starter Jose Balanzar had a strong outing against the Boston Red Sox at Yankee Stadium. The right-hander was a big part of his team's 5-1 win. The winning pitcher was Balanzar, now 1-0. He tossed 7 innings of 5-hit ball, while walking 2 and fanning 6. Phil Hall recorded his 2nd save for New York.

The Yankees got a big at-bat from first baseman Mike Ortiz. For the game, Ortiz was 1 for 4 with a home run. He drove in 2 runs and scored once. In the bottom of the third, with a runner on 1st, he stroked a 2-run home run. His 1st home run of the season gave New York a 3-1 lead.

"If you pitch well, you give yourself some opportunities," said New York manager Wladimir Sutil.

New York goes to 14-7.
