Overview

  • Red Sox rookie Hunter Dobbins declared he’d rather retire than wear pinstripes, igniting pregame trash talk before his first career start against the Yankees
  • Aaron Judge responded by clobbering a 436-foot opposite-field homer in the first inning and added a second two-run shot in the ninth
  • Dobbins held New York to three runs over five innings without issuing a walk or recording a strikeout and earned the win in an 11-7 finale
  • Boston’s lineup combined for 27 runs over three games, their highest total in a Bronx series since 2005, to secure a 2-1 victory
  • Despite the loss, the Yankees remain 8.5 games clear atop the AL East as Judge continues to lead MLB with a .396 batting average and 1.264 OPS
