Wacha shuts down Yankees, Devers homers in Red Sox 3-0 win

BOSTON (AP) — Michael Wacha allowed two hits in seven innings in his return from a shoulder injury, and Rafael Devers homered on Sunday night to lead the last-place Boston Red Sox past the division-leading New York Yankees 3-0.

Tommy Pham had three hits for the Red Sox, who took two of three from New York — their first win in a real series against an AL East opponent this season in 13 tries.

New York has lost nine of its last 11 games but still has a double-digit lead in the division; the Red Sox are seventh in the race for the AL’s three wild-card spots.
