For Alex Cora, the emphasis is not on the playoffs. It’s over the next 12 games.
“I think we should stop talking about October to be honest with you,” said the director of Red Sox. “There is a lot of things going on and we have to play better. I am not saying that we are in a bad place, but I think we have to wait to see if October is one of them.”
Garrett Crochet will be on the Boston mound, which lost three of it.
The Yankees will counter with the right-hander Will Warren, who is 1-1 with an 8.68 MPM in his two departures against the Red Sox this season and in his career. Warren has recorded consecutive consecutive decisions and withdrew five years while granting two points on only two strokes during the first six heats of 12-2 defeat in New York against the Detroit Tigers.
The Red Sox will have a day off on Monday before a three -game homestism homletics from Tuesday.
