BOSTON — The Yankees had at least one reason to celebrate as they traveled back to New York on Sunday evening, licking their wounds after an ugly three-game sweep at the hands of the rival Red Sox. Boston traded superstar Rafael Devers to the Giants in shocking blockbuster deal.

They scored one on Friday, Aaron Judge's ninth-inning home run that sent the game into extra innings. They scored thre eon Saturday and after Trent Grisham's leadoff double, the Yankees managed one more runner in scoring position on the day.

New York Yankees star Aaron Judge had his worst performance of the season this weekend as the team was swept by the rival Boston Red Sox, going 1-for-12 over the three-game series.

The Yankees suffered their first regular-season series sweep since last July as the Red Sox dominated at Fenway Park, with New York batters hitting just .160 against Boston pitching.

First, he said last weekend that he’d rather retire than pitch for the Yankees because his father was drafted by New York twice before being traded.

Red Sox manager Alex Cora wanted his twin 7-year-old sons to meet the Yankees' Aaron Judge, the biggest star of his team's AL East foe.

Faced with the prospect of helping his team sweep their archrivals Sunday at Fenway, Red Sox starter Brayan Bello threw out his usual plan of attack and was rewarded with his best start of the season.

BOSTON — With Giancarlo Stanton not expected at Fenway Park this weekend, Aaron Boone said the Yankees are targeting their upcoming series against the Angels for the slugger’s 2025 debut. “I expect him, in some way, shape or form, in the Angels series, to be in play,” Boone said Saturday.
