Yanks And Sox To Open 2010 In Prime Time

From ESPN:
The World Series champion New York Yankees will play the Boston Red Sox in the major league Sunday night opener on April 4.

The game will be televised on ESPN2 nationally but will be blacked out on the ESPN2 in the areas of the two teams, where it will be broadcast on their local networks. The game originally had been scheduled for Monday, April 5.

When the schedule was announced in September, Yankees ace CC Sabathia anticipated the shift.

"It'll be cold. We know that for sure," he said, laughing. "To get in there right away and mix it up will definitely be good for baseball. I'm sure it'll be like a Sunday night baseball game or something like that, so that'll be cool."
I really don't like Yankees-Sox games in April, Boston always seems to be playing their best baseball then. Am I the only one who feels this way?
