Boston Red Sox
· 2026-06-29
The Boston Red Sox swept the New York Yankees in a four-game series at Fenway Park, winning all four games and holding the Yankees to just nine runs and a .130 batting average.
The Red Sox got a quality start in all four games, with Connelly Early, Payton Tolle, Jake Bennett, and Sonny Gray allowing just three earned runs over 26 2/3 combined innings.
The Boston Red Sox are now 36-46, standing 12th in the American League, and on a W4 streak after winning 5-4 vs New York Yankees on 2026-06-28.
This was the first time Boston swept New York in a series of at least four games in which Red Sox pitchers recorded a quality start in every game since earned runs became an official stat in 1913.
The Red Sox's rotation has been one of the best in baseball this year, and it helped that the Yankees were without their best hitter, Aaron Judge, due to injury.
The Red Sox will look to continue their winning streak, and their starting pitching will be key to their success.
And with three of the Red Sox's four starters being rookies, and the fourth being 36, this sweep is even more impressive.
The Red Sox's bullpen will also be important in their upcoming games, as they try to build on their current momentum.
So the Red Sox will need to keep playing well to move up in the standings, and their fans will be watching closely to see what happens next.
But for now, the Red Sox can enjoy their historic sweep of the Yankees, and look forward to their next series.
The Red Sox's win on 2026-06-28 was a big one, and it showed that they can compete with any team in the league.
