Red Sox 6, Yankees 3

 

Rookie phenom Roman Anthony, who earlier hit a game-tying RBI single in the 6th, homered 387 feet into deep right in the top of the ninth, propelling the Boston Red Sox to a 6-3 win over the Yankees in New York. Aroldis Chapman pitched the bottom of the inning, getting Judge, Bellinger and Stanton out, 1, 2, 3, on a pop fly and two grounders.  

Giolito gave up the three Yankee runs, lasting only 4.2 innings. Reliever Greg Weissert got the win.

Boston holds a 6-1 record against New York  this season. The Yankees suck. 

Tonight, Brayan Bello (9-6, 3.23) takes the mound for Boston against the Yankees' Max Fried (13-5, 3.26). These two pitchers went head to head back on June 15, with Boston wining in a 3-0 shutout that completed a three-game sweep in Fenway. Bello went seven innings, striking out eight, while Fried also went seven, striking out nine but giving up two runs, including a home run by Rafael Devers (remember him?).
