Red Sox Win First Matchup with Yankees, Hendricken Alum Michael King Throws Immaculate Inning

Rafael Devers hit a three-run homer in the first inning off Michael King, Marwin González added a two-run double and the Boston Red Sox beat the New York Yankees 5-2 in the first of the rivals’ 19 meetings this season. Former Yankee Nathan Eovaldi won his third straight start, taking a shutout in the sixth before tiring, and the Red Sox stopped their 11-game losing streak in the Bronx. A season-high sellout crowd of 18,040 booed as the Yankees lost for the eighth time in 11 games.
