After Jackie Bradley's clutch two-run double off the Wall tied the game in the seventh, David Ortiz blasted an opposite field two-run homer into the Monster Seats to give the Red Sox a 4-2 victory over the last-place Yankees.
The Boston bats were listless against Masahiro Tanaka (6.2-6-2-0-5, 99), managing only three singles through six innings. Indeed, only one Red Sox runner had advanced past first base, and the Yankees led 2-0. But with one out in the bottom of the seventh, Travis Shaw chopped a single down the left field line and Brock Holt lined a single past the dive of third baseman Chase Headley.
