September 12 - September series between the longtime rival Boston Red Sox and New York Yankees typically have major playoff implications. The Red Sox have won eight of the first nine meetings this season. After an 0-for-9 start to the series, Triston Casas hit a three-run home run to punctuate Sunday's win for the Red Sox. "That's good for (Pivetta)," Red Sox manager Alex Cora said. The second game of the doubleheader will mark lefty Carlos Rodon's first outing against the Red Sox since 2021.
