Gerrit Cole New York Yankees
Gregory Fisher-USA TODAY Sports

The New York Yankees hope to avoid yet another sweep at the hands of the Boston Red Sox.

The New York Yankees had another fruitless comeback attempted in Saturday’s 4-2 loss to the Boston Red Sox. Jordan Montgomery did his best, but one bad inning combined with lifeless Yankees bats was enough to push Boston across the line.

In Sunday’s matinee, New York hopes Gerrit Cole can help avoid a sweep.

With the Tampa Bay Rays drubbing the Angels on Saturday, the Yankees are still in third place and six games back.
