Juan Soto’s clutch RBI single in extra innings helps Yankees edge out Red Sox, 2-1


In a thrilling game at Yankee Stadium, the New York Yankees emerged victorious over the Boston Red Sox with a 2-1 win in the 10th inning. Juan Soto played the hero with a game-ending single that brought in the winning run. This victory marked the Yankees’ second consecutive walk-off win, a feat they hadn’t achieved in three years.

The game saw Gleyber Torres hitting a home run in the first inning for the Yankees, while Danny Jansen responded with a solo home run for the Red Sox in the fifth. Aaron Judge, who leads the major leagues in home runs and RBIs, continued to struggle with a single in the game and a career-high 16-game homerless streak.

Yankees’ pitcher Nestor Cortes delivered a strong performance, allowing only three hits and three walks with nine strikeouts in five innings. The bullpen also stepped up, with Clay Holmes securing the win after being demoted from the closer role earlier in the season.

With this win, the Yankees extended their lead in the AL East over the second-place Baltimore Orioles. The Red Sox, on the other hand, fell 4.5 games back for the final AL wild card spot.

In other news, several members of the U.S. Olympic women’s soccer team, including Tierna Davidson and Crystal Dunn, were honored before the game for their gold medal-winning performance in the Tokyo Olympics.
