Boston Red Sox's Dustin Pedroia, right, crosses home plate as teammate Jacoby Ellsbury (46) greets him after Pedroia hit a grand slam during the eighth inning of a baseball game against the New York Yankees, Wednesday, Aug. 27, 2008 in New York. The Red Sox won the game 11-3.

At this rate, the relentless Boston Red Sox might eliminate the Yankees sooner than anyone thought. Jason Bay drove in four runs, Dustin Pedroia hit a grand slam and Boston routed the listless Yankees 11-3 on Wednesday night, putting an emphatic dent in New York's dwindling playoff chances. "I never write the Yankees off until the season's over and the standings are set," Pedroia said.
