The 2019 Yankees lived up to their status as one of the top three home-run hitting teams in history, hammering 14 round-trippers in the four games. Five of the blasts were provided by Gleyber Torres.
Game One: Yankees 11, Red Sox 4: Luke Voit hit a grand slam in the first and Torres with a solo shot. Torres hit a three-run homer in the third.
Game Two: Yankees 11, Red Sox 2: The Yankees got homers from Torres, Aaron Judge, Brett Gardner, Austin Romine and Voit. James Paxton allowed one hit in six scoreless innings.
Game Three: Yankees 4, Red Sox 2: Chris Sale allowed four runs in six innings, easily the best start for Boston in the series. Two of the eight hits he allowed wete homers, by Edwin Encarncion and D.J. LeMahieu.
Game Four: Yankees 9, Red Sox 4: Torres and Voit went back-to-back again in the first inning, and Torres added another to cap a 4-for-4 game that included an RBI triple. Torres totaled five RBIs for the game. CC Sabathia allowed three hits in six innings for the win.
Projected rotation: Sabathia will sit out the second round. German-Paxton-Tanaka-Happ-(German)-(Paxton)-(Tanaka). The bullpen will be fully available.
