Despite Masahiro Tanaka only lasting 2.2 innings while operating on a pitch limit in his first start back from a concussion, the Yankees comfortably won the series with a game to spare, as well as 10 of their last 11 against the Red Sox. Offensively, the game for the most part mirrored the series finale against the Orioles, with the majority of the runs coming early on a grand slam.
Aaron Judge wasted no time in opening the scoring when he jumped on a hanging 2-2 curve up in the zone in the first.
