Red Sox, Rays and Phillies lose

The Yankees didn't lose ground tonight to either the Rays or Red Sox. Boston failed to capitalize on a possible ninth inning comeback as Kevin Youklis flied out to St. Louis Cardinal outfielder Skip Schumaker. The Cardinals defeated the Red Sox 5 - 4. Box.

Meanwhile the Astros held off a late Tampa Bay comeback to beat the Rays 4-3.
The Yankees remain five behind Boston for the Division and 3 1/2 games behind Tampa for the Wild Card.

The Phillies, who twice this year scored 20 runs in a game, only had two hits against Ervin Santana and the L.A. Angles. Vladimir Guerrero went 3 for 5 with 3 RBI and a homerun against the Phils. The Phillies have now droped three straight, and have allowed the once bumbling Mets to get back into it.
