Banged-up Yankees seek 9th straight win over Red Sox

The New York Yankees have dominated the Boston Red Sox this weekend without Giancarlo Stanton and Aaron Judge.

Now the Yankees hope the sprained left thumb that DJ LeMahieu sustained Saturday is not serious. They will be hoping for the best before attempting to get another win over the slumping Red Sox Sunday night at Yankee Stadium.

The Yankees are 5-0 against the Red Sox and on their first eight-game winning streak against Boston since 1985. New York is also 13-1 in the past 14 meetings, outscoring Boston 96-48.

Last year, the Yankees dominated the Red Sox with numerous injuries, but they were healthy for the first three-game sweep two weekends ago.
