Since Yankees pitchers can't get anybody out on the muscular teams, this season is about to get a lot more interesting. ...Dan Martin, Post:
In the first three games of the series, the Red Sox have scored 38 runs against Yankees arms. ...
This was the seventh straight start in which the Yankees' starting pitcher could not even go 4.2 innings. The Red Sox ... are gaining more confidence with each game they play.
Could this possibly be a reversal of the 1978 Yankees comeback, when they charged back from 14 games out in mid-July to stun the Red Sox? ...
[T]his much is clear after watching [the Yankees] try to pitch against the home run-hitting Twins and power-packed Red Sox: They can't come close to getting the job done. ...
[The Red Sox] have reestablished themselves as a dangerous postseason team. No one will want to face this lineup come October, and if the Red Sox add to their bullpen at the trade deadline, look out. ...
The Red Sox are playing the same kind of baseball they did on the way to their championship last year. ...
Sunday they can complete a sweep of the Yankees. Is anything still possible? ...
For the first time in the rivalry's long history, the Red Sox have scored eight-plus runs in six consecutive games. ...
If the Yankees can't stop the bleeding, though, they will find themselves in a race in the AL East.
[Aaron Judge's] woes at Fenway Park have continued this season, as Judge has put up some of the worst numbers of his career against the Yankees' rivals in Boston, and that didn't change in Saturday's 9-5 loss to the Red Sox.Post Sports Desk:
In 16 regular season games entering Saturday, Judge was just 12-for-63 with 19 strikeouts and a .666 OPS at Fenway — the only venue where Judge has been less productive in as many games is Tropicana Field, where he has a .655 OPS in 20 career games. ...
"That's baseball," Judge said of his recent struggles. ...
Judge also blared "New York, New York" as he walked by the Red Sox clubhouse when the Yankees left Fenway following their [ALDS] Game 2 victory in October and Boston went on to win the next two games at Yankee Stadium to end the series.
The rotation issues continue for the Yankees.
The team announced Sunday morning it has placed CC Sabathia on the 10-day injured list with right knee inflammation.
