This weekend's series against the New York Yankees was huge for the Boston Red Sox, and they made a huge statement Friday night. After a rain delay at Yankee Stadium, the Bronx Bombers seemed to have the first matchup sealed. Closer Clay Holmes gave his team a 99% chance of winning after he got two outs in the ninth inning, according to ESPN analytics. Juan Soto and Aaron Judge were shut down, and Ceddanne Rafaela delivered the go-ahead two-run home run in the 10th inning that sealed Boston's 5-3 win.
