Kiké Hernández hit a tiebreaking single in the 10th inning and the scuffling Red Sox beat the Yankees with the help of Torres' late error.
— Runs were difficult to come by all weekend at Yankee Stadium, and one big mistake by second baseman Gleyber Torres was just the break Boston needed Sunday night.New York YankeesDespite scoring just seven runs in three days, last-place Boston took two of three games in the first series this season between the longtime rivals because its pitching staff shut down a sputtering Yankees lineup missing injured outfielders Aaron Judge and Harrison Bader.
Jose Trevino's early two-run single that took a lucky bounce off second base was one of only three hits for the Yankees — and all the offense they could muster. Hernández's sharp single off Ron Marinaccio in the 10th scored pinch-runner Adam Duvall, placed at second base as the automatic runner before advancing to third on Triston Casas' groundout to the right side.
"I think I was looking too fast the runner and just missed the ball. That's on me," Torres said."The throw was perfect."
