Yankees-Red Sox still gets fans talking and draws TV ratings, so the rivalry is far from dead. But it's missing a few key ingredients.

Dobbins didn’t take the bait postgame and pile on the Yankees after beating them twice. But he has become something of a young breakout star for the Red Sox this season and somewhat quietly has a 4-1 record and 3.74 ERA in 55 ⅓ innings in his first taste of big league action.
