Yankees offense struggles in season-opener
NEW YORK (AP) – In Major League Baseball’s opening day, the Yankees fell to the 2004 World Champions – the Boston Red Sox – 6-3.

Curt Schilling pitched 7 innings, giving up 2 hits, 1 solo homerun and 0 walks while striking out 5 batters.

"I felt great on the mound," Schilling said. "Getting a win like this against the Yankees is a great way to start off the season."

Manny Ramirez led the high-powered Red Sox offense and drove in 4 runs, 2 with a long 430-foot blast to left-field.

"Our offense couldn’t be stopped tonight," Ramirez, who went 5-5, said.

Randy Johnson, acquired from the Arizona Diamondbacks, went 6.2 innings but gave up 13 hits and 4 runs and was credited with the loss.

"Honestly, I just didn’t have my stuff tonight," the Big Unit said. "I’m disappointed with what I showcased or lack thereof."

While the Red Sox offense came out of the gates firing, the Yankees struggled to find any spark.

4 batters, including leadoff hitter Derek Jeter, went hitless and provided no help. To contribute to the offensive problems, each of the 1st 5 batters struck out once against the Red Sox ace.

The only scare for the Red Sox came in the bottom of the 8th inning, where relief pitcher Mike Timlin was brought in. Timlin gave up a leadoff double to Jason Giambi then a 2-run homerun to Tino Martinez, bringing the lead to within 1 run. Timlin proceeded to get the next two batters, Tony Womack and Derek Jeter, to fly out but when facing Alex Rodriguez, he gave up a single. To get out of the inning, Gary Sheffield and Timlin were engaged in a 7-pitch battle where Sheffield ended up grounding out to 2nd.

The Red Sox then proceeded to assure their victory with a 2-run homerun off of pitcher Paul Quantrill, by Manny Ramirez in the bottom of the 9th inning.

“Let’s just hope this sets a trend for the rest of the season,” said Ramirez, while laughing.


Jorge Posada is tagged out at home plate by catcher Jason Varitek, in the bottom of the 7th.


Alex Rodriguez gets tagged while trying to stretch a single into a double, in the bottom of the 9th inning.
