- Giancarlo Stanton came into the night with a career .904 OPS at Fenway and it didn't take long for him to build on that, crushing a homer over the Green Monster to open the scoring leading off the second. It was Stanton's third of the season, and his second in his last four games.
Boston starter Connelly Early held the Yanks there for the next three innings, but Stanton struck again in the sixth, making him pay for a pair of walks with a two-run double off the monster. The slugger enjoyed himself a much-needed big night at the plate after coming in hitless in his last nine at-bats.
- Luis Gil led the way on the other side of things for New York, delivering his best outing of the season to this point. The young right-hander had to work around traffic in each of the first three innings, stranding a man on second in the first and second, before brushing off a one out walk in the third.
Gil's first clean inning of the night was a six-pitch fourth. He then hit a man leading off the fifth, but went right back to cruising with some help from a double-play ball just three pitches later. Gil enjoyed another five-pitch shutdown inning after the Yanks extended the lead in the sixth.
The 27-year-old ran out of steam in the seventh, leaving after issuing back-to-back walks. Brent Headrick entered and retired the next two batters to close Gil's line with no runs allowed on two hits and three walks while striking out just two batters over 6.1 innings of work.
Gil now has a stellar 0.80 ERA in six career outings against the Red Sox.
- Randal Grichuk gave the Yanks an insurance run in the eighth, lining a one out RBI double into the left-center gap. Grichuk has gotten off to a bit of a slow start offensively this season, but he put together his first multi-hit game and has how driven in runs in two straight.
- David Bednar worked around a two out single to close out the victory in the ninth.
- Jazz Chisholm Jr has struggled to find his groove at the plate, but he also enjoyed his first multi-hit game of the season. The lefty-hitting infielder laced a single up the middle against Early in the top of the second and reached on a bunt hit to keep the inning going in the sixth.
- Aaron Judge didn't do much damage but he was able to reach safely three times on the night, lining a two-out single in the top of the seventh and drawing a pair of walks. The big man is still hitting just .235 on the season, but he's also racked up a strong .337 OBP and .931 OPS.
- Ben Rice's four-game homer streak came to an end, as he went hitless across four at-bats.
The big man paced the offense with a much-needed big night at the plate.
