Red Sox complete four‑game sweep of Yankees with walk‑off win

The Boston Red Sox defeated the New York Yankees 5‑4 in ten innings on June 28, finishing their first four‑game sweep of the rival club since 2018. Jarren Duran delivered the decisive walk‑off single in the 10th after Boston rallied from a two‑run deficit. Starting pitcher Sonny Gray carried a no‑hit bid into the 8th inning, struck out nine and recorded his 2,000th career strikeout before Amed Rosario broke up the bid with a single. Defensive lapses by Yankees right fielder Wilyer Abreu contributed to the extra‑inning drama. The victory dropped the Yankees from first place in the AL East, leaving them a game behind Tampa Bay, while the Red Sox improved to 36‑46, extending their longest winning streak of the season to five games. The sweep also marked the Red Sox’s first series sweep of the Yankees in six years and highlighted the rivalry’s continued volatility.
