Boston Red Sox defeated New York Yankees. Red Sox completed a series sweep, winning all games. Yankees faced offensive struggles, scoring only four runs in three games. Aaron Judge also had a tough series.
According to YES Network, it’s been 103 years since the Yankees were held to four runs or fewer across a three-game series against Boston. Not since 1922 had they looked this flat in a full series against the Sox. The Yankees' four runs matched their fewest in a three-game series at Fenway Park, from June 20-22, 1916, and from Sept. 28-30, 1922.
Hours after the Red Sox swept the Yankees on Sunday night, they made their second franchise-changing trade over the last five-plus years.
