I think so. Lester pitched well his last start out against the Yankees. Chamberlain has been progressively worse and worse over the last month and a half. Red Sox did not play as well as they should of in KC, blowing one big lead and losing another. Yankees are now coming off a West Coast trip. I think the Red Sox favored in Yankee Stadium tell you enough in this one.

ill take the Yanks as home dogs every dayComment -
Sox for me, might even half a cheeky bit on the RL. Joba is absolutely trash.Comment -
totally agree,joba is the most overrated pitcher on that team and if he played on a team that has a hard time scoring runs.he would either be in the bullpen or the minors.this is the one game they will winOriginally posted by SquirrelComment -

Lester has typically brought his best against the Yankees, who've never beaten him. Since the start of last season, He's 3-0 with a 1.90 ERA in six starts versus New York, with Alex Rodriguez going 2 for 13 (.154) against Lester. Robinson Cano is 2 for 18 (.111) in that same stretch.
He'll try to extend it against Joba Chamberlain, who is still looking for his first victory since Aug. 6. The right-hander, put on a strict innings limit by the Yankees late in his first full season as a starter, is 0-4 with an 8.42 ERA in his last eight outings.
Home field or not the pitching matchup overwhelmingly favors Boston - Boston 1st 5 innings.Comment -
