Red Sox 9, Yankees 5: Can this weekend last forever?
David Butler II-USA TODAY SportsOn Friday, it was the Mookie Betts show at Fenway as the 2018 MVP led the way in emphatic fashion for a second straight easy win for the Red Sox over the Yankees. On Saturday, he was the only Boston starter without a hit in the game. Despite the rough game from their star, the rest of the lineup was able to pick up the slack and then some en route to yet another big win. It was a well-rounded effort this time around with big games coming from J.D. Martinez, Andrew Benintendi, Rafael Devers and Sam Travis, among others. This weekend has been just about perfect for the Red Sox, and they are one game away from a shocking sweep of the Yankees.
