NEW YORK -- First baseman Travis Shaw and left fielder Jackie Bradley hit two-run home runs in consecutive innings off right-hander Ivan Nova as the Boston Red Sox prevented the New York Yankees from inching closer to clinching a postseason berth with a 5-1 victory Monday night.
The Yankees (86-70) had an outside chance at clinching at least a wild-card spot. A combination of them winning and losses by the Texas Rangers, Minnesota Twins and Los Angeles Angels and Minnesota Twins would have secured their spot.
