NOTES: Boston leads the season series 8-7. ... In his Career Matsuzaka is 3-1 with a 6.30 ERA in five starts against the Yankees. This season he's 1-0 with a 7.20 ERA in one start, which came all the way back on April 13th at Fenway. ... There is a lot of rain in the forecast so don't be surprised if this one gets rained out.

Mariano Rivera update via Peter Abraham: He says that Rivera has been been pitching with a sore shoulder all season, that there is "inflammation and calcification." And Mo has two options: "a series of injections and rehab or surgery." Mo hasn't made up his mind yet, but surgery is likely.
