A wild weekend at Yankee Stadium ended with the Boston Red Sox overpowering the New York Yankees, 11-7, in a high-scoring series finale that saw the visitors launch five home runs—matching their most ever in a game at the Bronx since 2010.
The Yankees jumped ahead early with two home runs from Aaron Judge, but Boston’s bats erupted in the middle innings. Rookie Carlos Narváez, facing his former team, delivered a pivotal three-run homer in the sixth, swinging the momentum in Boston’s favor. Abraham Toro and Trevor Story added back-to-back solo shots in the eighth, and Rafael Devers capped the night with a ninth-inning blast.
Yankees starter Carlos Rodón cruised through four innings but was chased after surrendering five runs in the sixth, tying his season high for runs allowed. Despite a late push, New York’s bullpen couldn’t contain the Red Sox offense, which tallied 27 runs over the three-game set—the most Boston has scored in a series at Yankee Stadium since 2005.
The series was not without drama, as weather delays loomed but ultimately did not disrupt play. The Red Sox took two out of three games, tightening the race in the AL East and setting the stage for another showdown at Fenway Park next weekend.
With both teams eyeing postseason contention, the rivalry’s next chapter is already building suspense.
