More important than the season series is the postseason race, however. The season series has been extremely one-sided in 2021. Even after the first game of Tuesday's doubleheader, the Red Sox are 10-4 against the Yankees this year, and they've outscored them 64-48 in the 14 games. but the Yankees gained ground in the postseason race. "It's hard to explain the sensation." Boston still owns the season series. "It's a different kind of energy when you come into a game and you try to close the game," Loaisiga said earlier this month. You could just see his confidence out there like, 'I got this.' He was able to execute and wiggle out of it. "A broken bat dribbler to start the inning and a good at-bat by Vázquez shooting it the other way, then another rolled hit. I think the guys are taking a lot of tough team at-bats right now, and Gardy and Judgy really setting the table there, and Gallo as well, and were able to come up with big hits to get a lead." We weren't able to really break through on him, but the more we do that, the more we put ourselves in position to bust through. "Go back to Sunday, [ (Lucas) Giolito throwing 77 pitches in three innings. "I feel like we're seeing that a lot now with our guys. Four batters, three walks for the bullpen. Lefty Josh Taylor entered next, and he walked Joey Gallo to load the bases. After striking out DJ LeMahieu to begin the fifth inning, Whitlock walked Brett Gardner and Aaron Judge to put the tying and go-ahead runs on base. They needed three relievers to get three outs as the Yankees took the lead in the fifth.įirst out of the bullpen: Garrett Whitlock, a former Yankees prospect plucked in this past offseason's Rule 5 Draft. Cora pulled his young right-hander after 18 batters, exactly two turns through the lineup, and that decision blew up on the Red Sox. As good as Houck was Tuesday and has been this season, the Red Sox rarely let him go through the lineup a third time, and that was true again Tuesday.
