NEW YORK — A day after a near perfect performance against their rivals, the Yankees were embarrassed by the Red Sox, 11-0, at Yankee Stadium. Boston is now back in first place, atop the American League East.
Things went wrong from the get-go for the Bombers, with Sonny Gray putting his team in a huge six run hole after just two innings of play.
The right-hander just did not have anything going today, giving up six runs on seven hits in what even he called an “embarrassing” start.
It all started with a Rafael Defers first inning grand slam that set the tone for Boston.
