At the plate: #Yankees designated hitter Ben Rice last night became the 21st #Yankees batter ever with multiple home runs in a playoff game, the 4th to do it in a playoff game vs #RedSox joining Jason Giambi (2003), Hideki Matsui (2004), and Gary Sánchez (2018).

Jahmai Jones has struck out looking in his first two at-bats tonight.
#RedSox

Back in October 2013 with #Tigers, #RedSox Sonny Gray became just 13th player in #MLB history to record 8.0+ scoreless IP with 9+ strikeouts in a postseason debut.

If Jones isn't interested in swinging then pine his ass and put in a lefty instead. #redsox

#RedSox put a runner into scoring position, but strand him there vs #Yankees Max Fried.

#Yankees burn one of their 2 ABS challenges on a called ball that's upheld for #RedSox Jahmai Jones.

Jones this season with…

Credit #RedSox Nate Eaton there. It's a hustle double for him with one out vs #Yankees Max Fried.

Ok, Eaton! I like the hustle! But that was daring. #RedSox

Currently counting gambiling ads in the Sox-Yankees game, not paying close attention. I've counted four so far and we're at the bottom of the 2nd (for non sports people that's 2/9ths into the game) #RedSox #Yankees #gambling #betting

Where the fuck was Wilson on that? #redsox

Back-to-back strikeouts for #RedSox Sonny Gray for #Yankees Spencer Jones and George Lombard Jr., the latter on just 3 pitches.
