The last Yankees-Red Sox series of the season was bittersweet for a couple of reasons.
On one hand, New York pulled off a four-game sweep. On the other, Sunday’s rain-soaked finale was over after six innings.
The pitching looked as strong as it has all year and the bats were in full sync. Yet, Aaron Judge is still stuck on 60 home runs and was 2 for 11 with five strikeouts in the series. The pressure isn’t going away, especially with Roger Maris’ family likely following the Yankees to Toronto.
But in the meantime, the Yankees hold a strong 8.
