  • New York Yankees won 7-2 when the two teams last met on August 24

New York Yankees Form

New York head to Boston having returned to winning ways last night, recording their 12th victory in their last 17 games.

The Yankees rattled off seven straight wins in late August as they backed up a 7-3 victory over Boston with a series sweep of Washington and three wins over the Chicago White Sox.

That run was ended by a 3-2 defeat in the ‘Windy City’, but they rallied in Houston where they sandwiched an 8-7 defeat to the Astros with 7-1 and 8-4 wins.

New York then returned home and bounced back from a 7-1 loss to Toronto in the series opener with 3-1 and 4-3 victories.

The Yankees failed to keep that run going as they were blown out in back-to-back games by Detroit, losing 12-2 and 11-1, but they did stop the rot last night with a 9-3 win in the final game of the series.

Boston Red Sox Form

Boston return home on a mixed run of form, having won six and lost six in their previous 12 games.

The Red Sox enjoyed a highly successful road trip in late August as they won seven times in eight games, but they cooled off at home with 4-2 and 10-3 defeats to Pittsburgh.

They avoided being swept as they took the series finale 5-2, and they then backed that up with 6-4 and 11-7 wins over Cleveland, before dropping the last meeting 8-1.

Boston struggled to rebound from that loss as they went out on the road and lost 10-5 and 5-1 to Arizona, but they did take the last game of that series, 7-4.

The Red Sox then made it three straight wins with 7-0 and 6-0 victories at The Athletics, only to miss out on the sweep as they lost 5-4 in the last game of the series.

Verdict

New York steadied the ship with last night’s win and they do have the more in-form pitcher here.

The Yankees bats are backed to get after Giolito and ensure the visitors take the bragging rights from this latest meeting of these fierce rivals.
