Jarren Duran delivered the walk-off single to cap a three-run rally in the bottom of the 10th, securing Boston's first four-game sweep of its rival since 2018.
The game was defined by late-inning momentum swings and defensive miscues. Red Sox starter Sonny Gray, a former Yankee, dominated his old team, carrying a no-hit bid into the eighth inning before Amed Rosario singled with one out. Gray finished with nine strikeouts, reaching the 2,000-strikeout milestone for his career, and left with a 2-0 lead.
That lead evaporated in the ninth inning against Boston's All-Star closer, Aroldis Chapman. The Yankees scored twice to tie the game, aided significantly by a throwing error from two-time Gold Glove right fielder Wilyer Abreu. New York then took a 4-2 lead in the top of the 10th, capitalizing on another error by Abreu, whose dropped sinking liner allowed the automatic runner to score.
