The Sox found ways to get on base against New York Yankees starter Gerrit Cole, but the right-hander showed why he’s one of the best in the American League, inducing four double plays. Cole and two relievers held the Sox to five hits.
Cole allowed four hits — two to José Abreu — in seven innings and struck out seven and walked three. The Sox struck out 10 times Saturday after striking out 11 times Friday.
Yankees shortstop Gleyber Torres continued to find success against the Sox, going 3-for-4 with four RBIs and two runs. Friday, he drove in both runs for the Yankees in a 2-1 win, including a game-winning single in the ninth.
