Some find doubleheader splits unsatisfying; it’s a long day’s worth of work that leaves both teams where they were before. In any case, the Yankees split with the Cardinals yesterday, but while the two teams experienced stasis on Saturday, the rest of the league continued to see things shift. It was another day full of rallies, pitchers duels, and even thrilling game-ending plays. Let’s go through it all.
Boston Red Sox (42-42) 7, Toronto Blue Jays (45-39) 6
The Jays and Sox played a thriller, with Boston prevailing on the final play of the game as Alex Verdugo gunned down Bo Bichette on a play at the plate.
