While it may be nice to start the Series at home and I wont be complaining come October if game's 1 & 2 of the World Series is in Fenway, I think its of little significance to the eventual winner or loser.

Tim I wouldn't count to highly on Fenway.
Yankees get back: Cano within two weeks, Matsui August 1st, Sheffield September 1st according to the latest reports. Add that to 23 2nd half of the season games against Baltimore and Tampa and that 3 game lead the Red Sos have sure doesnt look all that safe to me. I wasn't feeling too confident a month ago. BUt with the those guys coming back and the schedule coming up I smell a hard time for the Sox. They really already played their best baseball in that streak and have had the Yankees without 3 key starters. They really should have a much larger lead than 3 games. I think if you asked The Yankees a month ago if they would be happy to only be three down at the all star break they would have told you that they would jump for joy. I know I am.
