Boston Red Sox vs New York Yankees
Boston Red Sox
The Red Sox are in last place in the American League East, as they trail the New York Yankees by 18 games. They're also 5-5 in their last ten games, which has kept them out of the playoffs. With 14 games left in the regular season, the Red Sox are nine games out of the third Wild Card spot in the American League.
The Red Sox have put up a total of 4.63 runs per game. They're also hitting .259 as a team, which is the fourth-highest batting average in the league. They have shown that they can make contact with the ball and can drive in runs when they're in scoring position.
The Red Sox will be starting pitcher Michael Wacha on the mound against the Yankees. He's currently 11-1 on the season and has a 1.03 WHIP and a 2.61 ERA. In his most recent start, he shut down the Kansas City Royals. He has also won four out of his last five starts.
The team officials reported that Franchy Cordero (right ankle) and Trevor Story (left heel) will be sidelined indefinitely for recovery. An inflamed right shoulder will keep Nathan Eovaldi out until the end of September.
New York Yankees
The Yankees are currently the second seed in the American League Playoffs, and they're likely to remain there as they sit eight behind the American League leading Houston Astros. They're also currently leading the AL East by 5.5 games over the Toronto Blue Jays. During their last 10 games, the Yankees are 6-4.
The Yankees are currently hitting .241 as a team, and they're putting up a total of 5.03 runs per game. This is the second-highest scoring average in the league and the 17th-highest batting average among all teams.
They have shown that they can hit the ball hard at any time and have a lot of power in their lineup. New York is currently leading the league in home runs with an average of 1.60 per game. Aaron Judge is responsible for 60 of those home runs, and he will look to tie Roger Maris' American League record of 61 in a single season in this contest.
The Yankees will start Jameson Taillon on the mound, who is currently 13-5 with a 4.04 ERA and a 1.13 WHIP. Earlier this season, he had a rough time against the Milwaukee Brewers, as he gave up four runs and four hits in five innings. The Yankees' pitching staff has been solid this season, though, allowing only 3.59 runs per game.
However, the team has reported several injury updates. Zack Britton (left elbow surgery) and Frankie Montas (shoulder) are expected to be placed on the 15-day injured list.
