Durbin homers to break tie in the Red Sox's 6-3 win over the Yankees
Caleb Durbin’s two-run homer sparked a four-run fifth as Boston won despite four Yankees errors, and Connelly Early struck out nine.
- On Thursday night, the Boston Red Sox defeated the New York Yankees 6-3 at Fenway Park, fueled by third baseman Caleb Durbin's go-ahead two-run home run in the fifth inning.
- A mechanical failure on the team's charter flight from Denver forced an emergency landing, leaving the Red Sox arriving in Boston at 5 a.m. Thursday; interim manager Chad Tracy cancelled pregame activities.
- Benefiting from four Yankees errors, the Red Sox rallied for four runs in the fifth inning, marring an otherwise strong outing for Yankees starter Cam Schlittler, who allowed no earned runs on five hits while striking out nine.
- Red Sox closer Aroldis Chapman secured his 15th save by forcing a game-ending groundout, while first-base umpire Tyler Jones ejected pitching coach Andrew Bailey during the contest.
- Seeking a series split, the Red Sox will send LHP Payton Tolle to the mound Friday night against Yankees RHP Will Warren, with first pitch scheduled for 7:10 p.m. at Fenway Park.
