Yankee Mike Mussina's take on Fenway Park, where he retired the first 16 batters he faced on the way to beating the Red Sox on Sunday: "This place has had some success for me." Yeah, and Sinatra put on some good shows at the Sands. Mussina (right), who ended up allowing five hits and two runs in 6? innings, had come within an out of a perfect game at Fenway last September/so at one point on Sunday he had retired 43 of his last 44 hitters in Boston. Mussina's 2.94 career ERA at Fenway is surpassed only by his 2.68 at the Metrodome among current road parks in which he has made at least 10 starts. Even those marks aren't good enough to crack the top five of active pitchers with the lowest ERAs at a road stadium (minimum 10 starts).
