Yanks sink Bosox twice in one long day
Updated 8/19/2006 3:16 AM ET
By Jimmy Golen, Associated Press
BOSTON — The Yankees had to work extra long to extend their lead in the AL East.

GAME 2 Yankees 14, Red Sox 11

GAME 1 Yankees 12, Red Sox 4

New York beat the Boston Red Sox 14-11 to complete a sweep of Friday's day-night doubleheader and give the Yanks a season-high 3 1/2-game margin over their archrivals.

At 4 hours, 45 minutes, the nightcap was the longest nine-inning game in major league history, and it came on top of a relatively speedy 3:55 afternoon contest.

"We kept looking up and it kept being the fourth inning. It was nuts," Yankees manager Joe Torre said. "I'm proud of it, especially in this ballpark, where every game seems like it's the longest game in history."

The teams combined for 41 runs and 61 hits. Twenty pitchers — that's counting Mike Myers and Scott Proctor twice — threw 783 pitches. In all, the teams played 8:40 minutes of baseball, from Jason Johnson's first pitch at 1:10 p.m. until Mariano Rivera covered first to retire Wily Mo Pena at 12:52 a.m.
