Last week on Tuesday night the Yankees were eliminated from the playoffs. The Boston Red Sox beat the New York Yankees three games to one. Game three consisted of the Red Sox completely dominating the Yankees with a final score of 16-1. Game 4 was a pretty close one ending with a score of 4-3. Twice in 19 days the Red Sox defeated the Yankees at their home. Looking at inning four Christian Vazquez scores a solo home run for the Red Sox. During inning nine the New York Yankees were able to earn two homeruns and had players on base one and two but were later called out after an upheld challenge on the play, thanks to Boston’s amazing first basemen Mr. Pearce. There had already been two other outs this inning so this ended up being game, Red Sox up by one. The Yankee’s did have some chance of getting the game to a tie or maybe even winning it, but they just did not have it in them this playoff season or in this last game number four. The Boston Red Sox have only ever reached the AL championship series once and that was in 2013. They are now one game away from making it there again for a second time, which we will see Saturday night at Fenway Park when they face the Astros. Do you believe the Boston Red Sox have what it takes to beat the Astros and move on to the big Al championship?
