Boston Red Sox manager Alex Cora alluded to pitcher Brayan Bello purposely throwing at New York Yankees slugger Aaron Judge.

After Yankees starter Gerrit Cole hit Red Sox third baseman Rafael Devers during Boston's 7-1 win on Saturday, Bello threw a sinker behind Judge's back in the sixth inning.

"It was closed yesterday around the sixth inning," Cora said when asked if the incident was closed, per Chris Kirschner of The Athletic. "We had our chance. It didn't happen and we have to move on."

The Red Sox skipper told reporters that he believed Cole intentionally hit Devers after the game.
