The New York Yankees defeated the Boston Red Sox on Friday, securing a 9-6 win in the series opener. It was an impressive offensive showing for the Yankees, who furthered their lead atop the American League in runs scored.

New York Yankees shortstop Anthony Volpe was not in the lineup against the Boston Red Sox on Saturday after being hit in the left elbow by Walker Buehler's pitch.

After Friday night’s 9-6 win over the Red Sox, Boone had to think about what he wanted to do with shortstop Anthony Volpe, who had to leave after three innings with a left elbow concussion that occurred on a second-inning, bases-loaded hit by pitch.
