Even when they find it difficult to produce the great success, the Boston Red Sox find ways to beat the Yankees. Their last victory was largely due to three players who had a safe blow in their success at the start of the season against New York.
The Red Sox will try to seize the first position of the American League and to win a seventh consecutive victory on the Yankees when the rivals continue a series of four games on Friday evening in New York.
Boston leads the series of season 6-1 after losing seven of the 13 games last season. The Red Soxs moved to a half-match of the Yankees for the position of the Top Al Wild-Card Thursday when they opened the series with a 6-3 victory.
Boston went 3 to 19 with runners in a notation position, but obtained big nights from the Roman recruit Roman Anthony, the newcomer Nathaniel Lowe and Alex Bregman, who was on the list of injured in June during the two club series in June.
Anthony, who made his debut on June 9, struck a two -point circuit in the ninth and led in three points in his beginnings to the Yankee stadium. He produced two of the Boston sures with runners in a rating position. Anthony hits 0.373 (19 for 51) in this region and has three circuits in his last nine games after hitting two in the first 50 games in his career.
“This is probably what I imagined, and maybe even a little more,” said Anthony about playing in New York. “But it’s exciting. For me, I love playing in this atmosphere. I love being hué, I like everything, so it’s fun.”
Lowe, who joined the Red Sox on Monday, rolled in two points with a sacrificial fly and a double. He reached four times in 11 appearances for Boston.
Bregman has made three shots and a walk, and he hits. 337 (28 for 83) in his last 23 games.
After matching their season with five consecutive victories, the Yankees have played one of their seaside matches in weeks, making four mistakes. Paul Goldschmidt and Luis Gil made ground errors while Ben Rice and Jazz Chisholm Jr. made wandering throws.
The Yankees but published nine goals on balls on Thursday, their second highest total of the season. Rice Homered and Goldschmidt and Chisholm hit RBI in simple, but New York failed 10. The Yankees scored only seven points in their last four games against Boston.
“But not a real clean match for us,” said Yankees manager Aaron Boone, whose team is still 9-4 in the last 13 games. “Obviously, many free bases there.”
Max Fried (13-5, 3.26 ERA), which is 2-3 with an MPM of 7.20 in its last six outings, will start for Yankees on Friday. On Saturday in Saint-Louis, he won the victory despite having allowed a summit of seven points in eight strokes in five or more rounds during a 12-8 victory.
“I think what is all that is very close to whom he was all year round and who he was when he was at his best,” said Boone on Thursday afternoon. “So, I have the impression that it is something that, hopefully, can click because it probably looked a little over there and fight a little there.”
Fried has a 2-1 file with an MPM of 2.84 in three career starts against the Red Sox. He took the defeat on June 15 in Boston when he granted two points on six strokes in seven rounds.
The start of Boston Friday, Brayan Bello (9-6, 3.23 ERA), will try to reach two-digit victories for the third consecutive season. The right -hander launched on Saturday for the last time, when he gave two points on four strokes in 6 1/3 rounds to beat the Miami Marlins.
Bello opposed Fried on June 15 and launched seven-sleeves aimlessly and only made sure in seven-rounds during a 2-0 victory. He has a 4-3 sheet with a 2.21 MPM in nine career starts against Yankees.
