In a bizarre Red Sox season, Wednesday’s game against the Yankees stacks up against any other as one of the strangest.
Most notably, the Red Sox made a number of uniquely costly errors which cost them at least three of the five runs the Yankees generated in a 5-3 loss (and at least one run of their own).
The first error was this single in the top of the fifth inning, which the Red Sox — in trademark 2022 fashion — somehow allowed the Yankees to stretch into a Little League homer. With runners on first and second and no runs on the board, Gleyber Torres singled to right.
