FINAL: Red Sox 6, Yankees 5 - Verdugo the hero with game-tying hit in 8th, walk-off in 10th

The Yankees had been 61-0 when leading at any point in the 8th inning or later this season, the 3rd-longest such win streak to begin a season over the last 20 seasons.

Well, that's over with.

Alex Verdugo carried the offense with a game-tying hit, and a laser to score two and win it in the 10th

McAdam is off so I'll be doing Live Coverage and Sox coverage the next few days. Just letting you know, I'm going to be a little late today but I will get caught up. Keep each other updated in the comments! Thanks! - Bedard
