"It felt kind of surreal,"
"I lost my best friend yesterday so today felt like a different type of day especially with the 100th home run coming today and everything."
"I always want to play Boston," Chisholm said. "I feel like the energy in the game, the way our fans come out, the way their fans come out, I feel like it's a real intense game. Every game against Boston here has felt like a playoff game. So, for me, I know that's exactly what we're going to have and we're going to need to get ready for the playoffs and I know a lot of guys in here feel that too."
Jazz Chisholm Jr. hit a two-run homer in the second inning at Yankee Stadium to give the Yankees their first lead since Thursday. Chisholm revealed he lost his best friend the previous day and said he had been going through a lot over the last "30 hours or so." Cameras captured an emotional Chisholm hugging Aaron Judge after the 100th career homer. Chisholm added a second homer in the eighth, reaching 24 homers on the season. Trent Grisham hit two homers to reach a career-high 25. The Yankees won 7-2, avoided a four-game sweep, snapped an eight-game losing streak against Boston and sit a half-game behind the Red Sox for the top Wild Card spot.
