The New York Yankees look like they are the best team in the American League, and they don’t even have their best player. The team is getting some surprise contributions from guys like Paul Goldschmidt. The team is hitting .241 for the season, and they have one of the better pitching staffs in the game as well.
Series Finale
Today, they turn to Carlos Rodon, who has been one of the better pitchers in the Yankees’ rotation. For the season, Rodon is 4-2 with a 3.70 ERA and a 1.28 WHIP. The Boston Red Sox hitters don’t have a great history against him, batting just .227 in 75 at-bats.
The Red Sox are looking to get the sweep, with Sonny Gray on the mound. Gray has been very good this year, going 9-1 with a 2.95 ERA and a 1.19 WHIP. His performance at Fenway is a major reason Boston was getting any wins there.
