The Red Sox had just two hits in the game against a mid-rotation starter for New York. It’s one thing to knock the A’s around Sacramento like they did last week, but it’ll be harder in the playoffs. This was only one game. The Red Sox might bounce back and score 8 runs on Saturday.

BOSTON (AP) — Aaron Judge hit his 362nd career homer to pass Joe DiMaggio on the Yankees’ all-time list, and Luis Gil pitched six no-hit innings to beat the Boston Red Sox 4-1 on Friday night and help New York expand its edge in the race for home-field advantage in the American League playoffs.

Backed by Luis Gil throwing six no-hit innings and Aaron Judge passing Joe DiMaggio on the club’s all-time home run list, the Yankees knocked off the Red Sox 4-1 in front of a sellout crowd of 36,760 on a crisp night at Fenway Park.

The 33-year-old only trails Yankees icons Babe Ruth, Mickey Mantle and Lou Gehrig on the franchise's all-time home run leaderboard. While Judge passed DiMaggio against the Red Sox on Friday, DiMaggio's final home run of his career also occurred during a matchup with Boston in 1951.

Yankees' Anthony Volpe gave reporters an insight as to how he's progressing in his recovery amid his bout with a shoulder injury.

Manager Aaron Boone said Friday that he doesn't think Volpe (shoulder) will start any of the Yankees' games against Boston this weekend, Chris Kirschner of The Athletic reports. Volpe received a cortisone shot in his shoulder Wednesday,

On Thursday, Aaron Judge tied one of the New York Yankees' greatest legends for the fourth-most home runs in franchise history.
