Overview
- Manager Alex Cora said Anthony remains day-to-day after feeling tightness on a swing Tuesday, which kept the leadoff hitter out Wednesday and Thursday.
- Anthony has focused on treatment in the training room, and local reporting says no imaging is scheduled as the club expects a short absence.
- With Anthony sidelined, Jarren Duran moved to the leadoff spot and Ceddanne Rafaela was slated to hit second.
- The Yankees completed a sweep that dropped Boston to 9-16, and the Red Sox now start a road trip in Baltimore seeking a spark on offense.
- The timing halts a seven-game surge for Anthony in which he hit .318 with a .516 on-base percentage after a slow start to the season.
