Wakefield shines in win over Yankees
Associated Press
TAMPA, Fla. — Tim Wakefield allowed one hit over three scoreless innings and Trot Nixon hit a two-run homer as the Boston Red Sox beat the New York Yankees 2-1 in a spilt-squad game Sunday.
Wakefield struck out three and walked one. He threw 30 of 46 pitches for strikes. “I felt good,” Wakefield said. “I threw all my pitches for strikes. I’m just trying to get my work in.”
Nixon homered in the third inning off Yankees starter Mike Mussina. Mussina gave up two runs and four hits in four innings. He had three strikeouts and walked one during his 50-pitch outing. “I felt OK,” said Mussina, who threw 32 strikes. “I got the ball over. I’m about where I should be.”
Erick Almonte had a sacrifice fly for the Yankees in the eighth. New York had been shutout 2-0 by Tampa Bay on Saturday.
Boston shortstop Nomar Garciaparra, who had wrist surgery last year, went 1 for 3 and might play in back-to-back games this week. “We’ll see how things go this week,” Garciaparra said. “Maybe Thursday and Friday I’ll play back-to-back. We’ll see how if feels. Everything is going well so far.”
The Yankees’ other squad played to a 4-4, 10-inning tie with the Minnesota Twins. Sterling Hitchcock, who is competing with Orlando Hernandez and David Wells for the final two rotation spots, allowed four runs and seven hits in four innings. “Obviously we’ll digest everything and see how he feels,” Yankees manager Joe Torre said.
Notes Yankees CF Bernie Williams was scratched because of mild right calf tightness. … New York sent LHPs Brandon Claussen, Alex Graman and Kevin Lovingier; RHP Bo Donaldson, Brett Jodie, Brandon Knight and David Walling, INFs Kurt Bierek, Kary Bridges and Kevin Polcovich and OF Marcus Thames to its minor league camp.
