BOSTON (AP) — Gleyber Torres’ two-run double capped a three-run 10th inning, Aaron Judge hit his 37th homer as he reached base a career-high six times and the New York Yankees rallied past the Boston Red Sox 11-8 on Saturday night. In a game that was tied five times, matching the most in the major leagues this season, New York led 3-0 and 4-3, and Boston went ahead 5-4, 6-5 and 8-6. Judge homered for the second straight night to raise his big league-leading total, had four RBIs and tied a career best with his 10th four-hit game. Judge joined Babe Ruth on Sept. 28, 1923, and Lou Gehrig on Sept. 5, 1927, as the only Yankees to reach base at least six times with at least three RBIs against the Red Sox.
