Luis Gil Exits After Six No-Hit Innings as Yankees Beat Red Sox 4-1

Nate Eaton’s seventh-inning homer off Fernando Cruz ended the no-hit try.

Overview

  • The Yankees right-hander walked four, struck out four and threw 93 pitches over six hitless frames, with a balk and two wild pitches.
  • Fernando Cruz struck out Carlos Narváez to open the seventh before yielding Eaton’s drive over the Green Monster for Boston’s first hit.
  • The victory pushed New York 1.5 games ahead of Boston for the AL’s top wild-card position, which carries home-field advantage in the first round.
  • Aaron Judge hit his 362nd career homer to pass Joe DiMaggio on the Yankees’ list, a 468-foot shot in the first inning.
  • Major League Baseball still has not recorded a no-hitter this season after the bid ended at Fenway Park.
