Ellsbury steals home, BoSox sweep Yanks (AP) (sports.yahoo.com)

Jacoby Ellsbury stole home and the Boston Red Sox ran off with a three-game sweep of the New York Yankees. Boston's speedster surprised left-hander Andy Pettitte with his dash in a three-run fifth inning that gave the Red Sox their 10th straight win, 4-1 Sunday night. They came from behind in all three games and trailed Sunday on Brett Gardner's sacrifice fly in the third.
