The champion New York Yankees will face the Boston Red Sox in Major League Baseball's season opener on April 4, officials announced on Tuesday.

They have met only once before in a stand-alone game to open a major league season.

That was in 2005 in Yankee Stadium after the Red Sox had won the 2004 title.

New York and Boston are arch rivals.
