New York Yankees @ Boston Red Sox: Carlos Rodón vs. Tanner Houck
There are many things you can say about the first two games of this series. Boring isn’t one of them. Defensive miscues, web gems, timely hits, missed opportunities, pitchers escaping jams, pitchers getting shelled—both games so far have had more than their fair share of each. The Yankees were down to their last strike last night before Trent Grisham rattled a ball off of the Green Monster past Tyler O’Neill’s glove to set the stage for Gleyber Torres, who drove in two insurance runs in extra innings to steal Game 2 for the Yankees. In turn, the stage is now set for an absolutely massive rubber match between the Yankees and Red Sox on Sunday Night Baseball.

Yankees suddenly have momentum with rout of Red Sox to win series in Jazz Chisholm’s debut
BOSTON — When the Yankees dropped a crushing series-opener here Friday night, manager Aaron Boone called it “gut-check time” in their season. It will take more than just two games to get a definitive answer on how the Yankees respond to it. But the early returns have been encouraging. In the place where their free-fall began six weeks ago, the Yankees spent much of the weekend looking more like the team they were through the first two and a half months of the season. On Sunday, that resulted in an 8-2 win over the Red Sox at Fenway Park that secured the Yankees...
