4 takeaways as Rafael Devers blasts 2 homers, lifts the Red Sox to a 6-2 win over the Yankees

The Red Sox came from behind against the Yankees once again Friday and left with a 6-2 victory at Fenway Park.

Rafael Devers blasted a two-run homer in the fifth and a three-run shot in the seventh. The second was the 100th home run of his career, and both came at crucial points in the game.

“He’s one of the best third basemen in the big leagues,” manager Alex Cora said of Devers, “and he’s only 24.”

Here’s what happened as the Red Sox (60-38) stayed undefeated against the Yankees (50-46) at home this season and guaranteed at least a split in the four-game series.
