The Yankees faced a disappointing series against the Red Sox, suffering a significant loss by giving up 27 runs in just three games. Their pitching weakness was particularly evident as Carlos Rodón, who had excelled in previous outings, faltered by allowing five runs, including two home runs during the game. This series began with a controversial statement from Boston's rookie starter Hunter Dobbins but highlighted the competitive tension of the rivalry, especially after Aaron Judge's notable two-run homer early in the game.
Rodón entered the day having given up one run or fewer in each of his last four starts without a single batted ball leaving the yard.
Boston's rookie starter Hunter Dobbins made a bold statement prior to this series, declaring that he would rather retire than play for the Yankees.
Rodón navigated around a two-out walk of Carlos Narváez in the fourth but wasn't so lucky in the fifth.
A combination of the free pass and the long ball handed him his worst start since the start of April, giving up five runs on a pair of home runs.
