NEW YORK -- In a Yankee-Red Sox rivalry that has featured so many thrills and absurd happenstance, at least the Yankees could laugh off a bizarre second-inning play that probably would have cost them dearly against the Red Sox earlier in the season. When have you ever seen the batter in the on-deck circle cost a team at least one and possibly multiple runs?

NEW YORK - I went in search of the last Yankee-Red Sox game that was played in less than two hours, 40 minutes and I'm here to report that Randy Johnson last made it happen in 2005. I look upon that game with reverence and admiration, coming off Wednesday night's 4- hour, 8-minute slugfest -- and the seemingly interminable 3 hour, 55 minute game the previous Sunday at Fenway Park.

WASHINGTON - The judge in the Roger Clemens perjury trial, which begins today, is considering just how much of a salacious allegation against the star pitcher's chief accuser is fair game, and he's probably not going to let a parade of Clemens' former New York Yankee teammates testify about their drug use.

Clemens' defense is focused on convincing jurors that McNamee is a liar, and his attorneys also want to introduce allegations that McNamee drugged and raped a woman in a Florida hotel pool while on a trip with the Yankees in 2001.

SAN FRANCISCO - Former New York Yankee Randy Velarde testified Wednesday that he purchased human growth hormone from Barry Bonds' personal trainer throughout the 2002 season, making him the fourth major leaguer to admit drug use during Bonds' perjury trial.
Velarde said the HGH gave him more "endurance and strength" and that personal trainer Greg Anderson would help him inject the performance-enhancing drug.
