Overview
- Sonny Gray carried a no-hit bid into the eighth inning on Sunday night, finishing 7 1/3 innings with nine strikeouts and recording his 2,000th career strikeout while allowing one hit.
- New York rallied late, scoring twice in the ninth to tie the game and then taking a 4-2 lead in the 10th after Boston defensive miscues and a blown save by Aroldis Chapman.
- Two errant plays by Red Sox right fielder Wilyer Abreu — a wild throw in the ninth and a missed play in the 10th — directly produced Yankees runs and set the stage for extra innings.
- Jarren Duran began the game on the bench, entered as a substitute and delivered the walk-off single in the bottom of the 10th that completed Boston’s comeback and raised his average to .200.
- The sweep is Boston’s first four-game sweep of New York since 2018, gives the Red Sox a season-best four-game streak while they remain below .500, and pushes the Yankees a game behind Tampa Bay as New York’s offense and bullpen face renewed scrutiny.
