Aroldis Chapman New York Yankees

The New York Yankees go for the series split with the Boston Red Sox in a Sunday matinee.

A late comeback and some ninth-inning drama later, the New York Yankees are in a position to split a four-game series with their archrival Boston Red Sox. Nathan Eovaldi got a 3-0 lead early on Saturday, but Jameson Taillon never backed down with seven strong innings. Cue the comeback and Aroldis Chapman holding down the ninth, and here we are today.

The Red Sox remain in first place in the AL East, but the third-place Yankees gained a game and are now eight back.
