One of baseball’s most historic rivalries has completely belonged to the home team this weekend, as the Boston Red Sox welcome the New York Yankees to Fenway Park tonight, June 28, for the fourth and final game of the series
Looking to secure a rare four-game sweep over their bitter rivals, the Red Sox have relied on stellar pitching and timely hitting to completely stifle New York’s offense over the first three contests.
The series kicked off on June 25 with Boston setting the tone in a 6-3 victory, capitalizing on early mistakes by the Bronx Bombers. The momentum continued on June 26 as the Red Sox cruised to a dominant 6-1 win.
