Red Sox dominating Yankees in suԀԀenly one-sided rivalry: ‘Kicked our аss’
The latest humiliation in this lopsided rivalry occurred on Sunday.
The Yankees and the Red Sox have played each other nine times this season, and the Yankees have only won once.
Only one in nine. One puny triumph.
On Sunday, Boston overcame the fact that they had blown four separate leads. Despite having a one-run lead, the first two batters in the ninth inning were placed on base by closer Kenley Jansen.
It seems this year that the Yankees and the Red Sox are playing for naught.
The Boston area will ultimately succeed.
The Red Sox are only three games behind the Mariners for the third AL wild card, and the Yankees need a miracle just to get back into the race because of the Red Sox’s superiority head-to-head.
After a 6-5 loss to the Red Sox, the Yankees’ manager, Aaron Boone, stated, “They’ve kicked our аss.” This loss capped the Red Sox’s three-game sweep of the Yankees. There have been a few close games that we’ve played in. We haven’t been up to par.The first two games of the series went well for the Red Sox, as they won by a combined score of 16-4.
On Sunday, things changed.
The Yankees fought back on Sunday.
The Red Sox, however, always came back with an answer.
They had a great weekend, especially Rafael Devers and Justin Turner together.
Devers, a Һitter who terrorizes the Yankees.This season he Һit.429 (15-for-35) with two home runs and four RBI while going 9-for-13 with a.
Turner batted.666 with six RBIs, four of which came in the decisive game of the series.
In the seventh inning, he blasted a three-run homer, and in the ninth inning, he drove in the winning run.
Turner, a former Mets infielder, remarked, “That had a real playoff feel, especially in those last three innings the back and forth and the fans were into it.” “Winning felt great.”
If the first nine games are any indication, the Red Sox will continue to annihilate the Yankees in the final four games of the season, which will be played at Fenway Park from September 11-14.
The Red Sox have beaten the Yankees by wide margins and by a single run three times. They have a 54-24 scoring advantage.
