On Saturday afternoon, the New York Yankees will continue their series with the Boston Red Sox in the Bronx.

They are coming off a 1-0 win on Friday night.

Brendan Kuty of The Athletic wrote: “Yankees win, 1-0, over the Red Sox. They push Boston to three games back of them in third place in the AL East. And they tie the season series at 5-5. Prob not exactly “victory of the year so far” territory, but huge nonetheless, especially considering the rest of the weekend.”
