Few games in every sports league get a lot of attention. MLB has many such contests, including one between the two former World Series winners, the Boston Red Sox, and the New York Yankees. Baseball fans await every season for their match days to experience this epic contest. Similar were the scenes when the two teams met a week before at the Bronx stadium. Fans of both teams expected it to continue at Fenway Park. Even though the first game setup up the series nicely, the postponement of the rest of the games led to the dejections of fans.

But according to the latest reports, the two teams will play the rest of the proposed games on the same day. This has come after a positive update that has increased the Yankee’s playoff hopes. Even after so much has happened related to the Yankees, fans are still not happy. What could be the reason?
