The New York Yankees swept off a 4-2 victory over the Red Sox in a homecoming match at Fenway Park, with Cam Schlittler's strong performance helping the Yankees secure their sixth consecutive win. The game was largely overshadowed by Boston's Payton Tolle, who left the game with a 2-1 lead after six innings of one-run ball in which he struck out 11. Cody Bellinger's pinch-hit, go-ahead, two-run single in the seventh inning secured the win for the Yankees. The win was the sixth consecutive victory for the team. The Red Sox had managed just three runs and 13 hits in a series.
