While the match-up may have lost some of the luster that ESPN forced on fans during the early 2000's, this is still a contest between the two front runners in the American League race. On the day, the Boston Red Sox (49-39) used a 3-run 10th inning to best the New York Yankees (48-42) by a 7 to 4 score.

While not recording a decision, starter Garrett Whitlock allowed 4 earned runs on 8 hits, 1 walk, and 1 hit batsman in 8 2/3 innings of play; Game Score 54. Nick Pivetta (2-1) picked up the win for his 1-pitch that induced a flyout. Liam Hendricks (SV 15) had a 9-pitch final inning to record the save and lower his ERA to 1.93 for the season. Powering the Red Sox offense were Tyler O'Neill (3 for 5, Double, Homerun, 2 Runs, 4 RBI), Tristan Casas (3 for 5, Run), Kyle Teel (2 for 5, Double, RBI), and Ceddanne Rafaela (2 for 5, Run).

Yankee ace Gerrit Cole also did not record a decision despite limiting damage to just 3 earned runs on 7 hits, 1 walk, and 1 hit batsman while striking out 6 in 8 innings of play; Game Score 61. Clay Holmes (4-6) (BS 7) was tagged with both a blown save and the loss after he was rocked for 4 earned runs on 6 hits and 1 wild pitch in 1 1/3 innings. JT Brubaker worked the final 2/3 innings without allowing any additional damage. At the plate, Trent Grisham (2 for 4, Homerun, 2 Runs, RBI), Oswald Peraza (2 for 5, Double, RBI), and Anthony Volpe (2 for 5, Double, Run) played well on the day.
