The New York Yankees continued their dominance over the Boston Red Sox so far this MLB season on Friday.
The Yankees saw their dreams crushed last October when the Red Sox knocked them out in the American League (AL) Divisional Series.
But the 2019 chapter of baseball's most bitter rivalry has been all Yankees so far, with New York beating Boston 4-1 in the opener of a three-game series in Yankee Stadium.
With the win, the Yankees (37-19) are now 3-0 against the rival Sox this season. The victory also pushed New York's lead in the AL East to 1.
