The New York Yankees entered the game 1 of their Wild Card series of the American League against the Red Boston Sox with local field advantage and a desire to return to the World Series.
But their hopes faded on Tuesday night thanks to the star of the Red Medias Garrett crochet and the clutch blow of Masataka Yoshida and Alex Bregman. Boston won the game, 3-1, and took an early advantage in the series.

The Yankees applied pressure on the red socks at the bottom of the ninth input. The Boston closer, Aroldis Chapman, tried to obtain the salvation of four outs. He did his job in the eighth entrance, but in the novena, Paul Goldschmidt, Aaron Judge and Clay Bellinger reached the base.
New York, however, could not put a runner on the plate with the bases loaded. Chapman struck out Giancarlo Stanton, Jazz Chisholm Jr. flew to the right garden and Trent Grisham finished the game with a punch.

The useless Yankees on the dish in a serious situation was historical, according to OPTA statistics.
The research organization wrote in X that the Yankees were the “first team in the history of the MLB postseason in having the bases loaded with anyone in the lower part of the novena, but not scoring a race and losing the game.”
“We have been playing very at stake, apparently every day,” said the Yankees manager Aaron Boone, through MLB.com. “Tonight was a great baseball game in which we could not get that final blow. We will be ready to go, and I hope we go out and get one (in game 2).”

Game 2 is ready for 6 PM ET in the Yankee Stadium.
