Heading to the hill for the Yanks tonight will be righty Alfredo Aceves, who is 1-0 with a 1.38 ERA. Aceves was brilliant against the Baltimore Orioles on Saturday, scattering five hits in six scoreless innings, but did not factor in the decision of his team's 1-0 win. Aceves has never faced the Red Sox. On the injury front, New York could be without closer Mariano Rivera this evening, as he was se |
