“#Yankees’ rally falls short in another loss to rival Red Sox<\/strong>”<\/p>\n

\n

BOSTON \u2014 Gerrit Cole, before Saturday\u2019s game<\/a>, likened this Yankees-Red Sox series<\/a> to \u201ca little bit like a heavyweight fight to see who comes out on top.\u201d<\/p>\n

So far, it\u2019s no contest.<\/p>\n

The Yankees have dropped all five meetings between the two teams this season and it will be up to Cole to prevent a second straight sweep at the hands of their rivals following a 4-2 loss at Fenway Park on Saturday night.<\/p>\n

With another sellout crowd chanting \u201cYankees suck\u201d throughout the game, Nathan Eovaldi shut down the Yankees for most of the night. The Yankees\u2019 offense, which looked in recent weeks as if it were coming together, has quieted down in Boston.<\/p>\n

The Yankees\u2019 bats mostly stayed silent until DJ LeMahieu got the Bombers on the board with a solo homer with two out in the eighth inning to end Eovaldi\u2019s night.<\/p>\n

Hirokazu Sawamura came in and walked Aaron Judge, Gary Sanchez and Giancarlo Stanton to load the bases. He was lifted for Adam Ottavino, who got Luke Voit to ground out.<\/p>\n

The Yankees had another chance in the ninth, when LeMahieu came up with two on and two out against Ottavino and singled in Rougned Odor from second.<\/p>\n

Ottavino rebounded to strike out Judge to seal the win.<\/p>\n

While Eovaldi\u2019s counterpart, Jordan Montgomery, wasn\u2019t bad, he was the victim of some bad luck, as the Yankees again played poor defense and provided the left-hander with no run support.<\/p>\n

They got a pair of singles in the top of the first, but didn\u2019t score.<\/p>\n

The Red Sox loaded the bases with no one out in the second, with a single from Xander Bogaerts, a walk to Rafael Devers and a hard comebacker by Hunter Renfroe.<\/p>\n

Following a visit from pitching coach Matt Blake, Kik\u00e9 Hernandez hit a sacrifice fly to drive in the first run. Bobby Dalbec then hit a foul pop down the first-base line. Voit made an off-balance catch, but Devers tagged up and scored on the play to make it 2-0.<\/p>\n

Bogaerts had a two-out double in the third and Devers reached on an infield single to shortstop. He was called safe after a review.<\/p>\n

Faced with runners on the corners, Montgomery got a grounder to second from Renfroe. LeMahieu, who was shifted away from the base, raced over to field it, but then hesitated with the throw as Renfroe beat it out. It was ruled a hit and Bogaerts scored to make it 3-0.<\/p>\n

A walk to Hernandez loaded the bases before Dalbec flied to deep center to finally end the inning.<\/p>\n

LeMahieu led off the sixth with a slow chopper toward third that Devers couldn\u2019t handle. It was ruled a hit. Judge singled through the right side of the infield before a Sanchez double play ended the threat, as the twin-killing again was a problem for the Yankees.<\/p>\n

Albert Abreu gave up a run in the seventh to put the Yankees in a 4-0 hole they couldn\u2019t escape.<\/p>\n

Cole will be matched against left-hander Eduardo Rodriguez in the series finale on Sunday afternoon<\/p>\n
