Mo is in to start the 9th with a 3-1 lead over the Red Sox.

First batter: Jason Varitek. After getting to a 2-1 count, Varitek got jammed but it managed to find a hole in right between Cano and Abreu, allowing Varitek to reach first.

Second batter: Joey Cora. Cora grounded to 1-2 back to Mo who turned and threw to Jeter to force Varitek. Cora reached safely.

Third batter: Julio Lugo. Lugo hit a very slow toller toward 3rd. A-Rod made a great play, barehanding it and throwing a strike over to Giambi at first. Cora to second.

Fourth batter: Kevin Youkilis. Youkilis popped up to Cano to end it.

With this, Mo earned his first save of the season! It also snaps the Yankees 7 game losing streak.
