25 Best Yankees Games of the Past 25 Years: A slugfest in London

The Londoners who came to watch the Yankees and Red Sox play in MLB’s official first game in Europe were not exactly treated to typical game experience. Sure, like many Yankees vs. Red Sox games, it was agonizingly long (almost five hours!) and featured plenty of offense, but otherwise it was unlike any game in recent memory. Neither starting pitcher could complete even one inning. Both offenses couldn’t seem to stop scoring. The Yankees simply were able to out-mash the Red Sox at London Stadium in this history-making game.

Date of Game: June 29, 2019

Final Score: Yankees 17, Red Sox 13

The first inning of the matchup featured more runs than you’ll see in most full games.
