    After the New York Yankees defeated the Boston Red Sox 14-4 on Saturday at Yankee Stadium, the two teams will meet for the series finale on Sunday night.

    For the matchup, Boston will send Kutter Crawford to the mound while New York will counter with Luis Gil.

    Here's what Alex Cora's lineup will look like for the matchup:

    1. Jarren Duran CF
    2. David Hamilton 2B
    3. Tyler O'Neill LF
    4. Rafael Devers 3B
    5. Connor Wong C
    6. Masataka Yoshida DH
    7. Wilyer Abreu RF
    8. Dom Smith 1B
    9. Ceddannee Rafaela SS

    And, here's Aaron Boone's:

    1. Ben Rice 1B
    2. Juan Soto RF
    3. Aaron Judge DH
    4. Alex Verdugo LF
    5. Anthony Volpe SS
    6. Austin Wells C
    7. Oswaldo Cabrera 2B
    8. Trent Grisham CF
    9. DJ LeMahieu 3B

    Crawford has been pretty good for Boston this season, posting a 3.47 ERA and a 1.10 WHIP while striking out 102. He's allowed three or fewer runs in his last four starts. Only two active Yankees have hits off of him - Judge (3-for-13 with two home runs, two RBIs and two walks) and Volpe (1-for-5).

    Gil has been just as good for New York in his 17 starts, recording a 3.41 ERA and a 1.13 WHIP while striking out 102 batters. He's struggled more recently, allowing at least four runs in each of his last three outings. He's given up hits to just three active Red Sox - Duran (2-for-4 with a walk), Rafaela (1-for-2) and Wong (1-for-2).
