00:00it's not gonna be 0304 ever again i feel like i have to say this every time the red sox and

00:03yankees play each other yeah that kind of we kind of touched the sun with that so that's done and

00:07if you want that you're never getting that but i call me crazy i feel like there's more to the

00:13rivalry this week than there even was a week ago when they played like i feel like already there's

00:18a little bit of buzz to this that there wasn't a week ago we could thank lance dobbins some of

00:22it's lance and hunter dobbins no but in all seriousness i think a lot of it is that anthony

00:26and meyer have created a little buzz here in boston i think there's a little bit to that and the team

00:30feels like they're turning it around just a touch and so i think there's some buzz to the rivalry

00:36right now it's not what it was 20 years ago it never will be again it might not be what it was 10

00:41years ago but for present day red sox yankees i feel like there's a little bit of a buzz right now

00:46but correct me if i'm wrong what is that oh that's the buzz for socks yankees so last week when they

00:51were playing compared to the series prior to that and then this most recent race series just as a fan

00:56yeah i was more interested i was a little bit more like oh socks yankees tonight and like let's

01:00see what's what's going on with that compared to the other games and that's got nothing to do with

01:04how desperate the red sox really should be playing right now we're 60 plus 70 game what is it 70 games

01:10into the season and they're under 500 are yep 70 games and even 70 games and they're under 500 so

01:16there's like a little bit of desperation like every night like you need this team to win like they need

01:20to start piling up series wins which they've done over the last couple they need to keep that going

01:26and you know taking two out of three from the yankees you only gain one game in the standings

01:32on them you're nine and a half behind the yankees like they got a very comfortable lead but no i do

01:38think there's just generally more interest in these games than any other series
