After taking two of three from the Yankees in the Bronx last weekend, the Boston Red Sox will look to win another series against their biggest rival at Fenway Park this weekend.

The retooled Red Sox will enter 9.5 games behind the Yankees, and they will be without injured free-agent signing Alex Bregman (quad) this weekend.

The Sox shipped Devers to the Giants in exchange for right-hander Jordan Hicks, left-hander Kyle Harrison and prospects James Tibbs III and Jose Bello.

Pedro Martinez ’s time with the Red Sox came at the peak of Boston’s rivalry with the Yankees. So when the former pitcher-turned-analyst compliments New York, fans take notice. Martinez had some positive comments as the Yankees beat the Kansas City Royals, 10-2, on Tuesday.

Dobbins didn’t take the bait postgame and pile on the Yankees after beating them twice. But he has become something of a young breakout star for the Red Sox this season and somewhat quietly has a 4-1 record and 3.74 ERA in 55 ⅓ innings in his first taste of big league action.

Garrett Crochet has been nothing short of elite since switching his socks from Chicago to Boston. The Red Sox and Yankees met again.

In 2005, Yankees president Randy Levine accused the Red Sox’ home venue of an “atmosphere of lawlessness” after an on-field brawl that spilled into the bullpen. Yankees relievers fought with a Fenway groundskeeper.

Boston's Fenway exploded in shock, but this time it wasn't Aaron Judge who knocked them out. The post Aaron Judge & Yankees Silenced as Red Sox's Hunter Dobbins Delivers Stunning Redemption After Media Frenzy appeared first on EssentiallySports.
