Judge tied the game in nine innings, blasted over the green monster and broke Crochet's dream of a complete seal, but the Yankees hated it in ten innings

In today's Sock Fight, Aaron Boone sits in the wet away team lounge at Fenway Park and looks at the Red Sox bench and exclaims "Whew!" The conversation focused on Garrett Crochet, the dominant left-handed pitcher this season. Until nine innings ago, Aaron Judge felt the same way.

Judge, who had struck three strikeouts in the first three strikes, blasted Crochett's 99.6-mile speedball over the green monster wall in a full-ball duel. Statcast, who measured a muzzle velocity of 115.5 mph and flew 443 feet, slammed into the Chevron billboard like a cannonball, and the team's tie-for-the 26th hit helped tie it for the top spot in the MLB home run standings.

Then the climax after the mutation farce:

Anthony Volpe was killed for stealing third base in the 10th inning; Boone is ejected for challenging DJ LeMahieu's throw-in; Lemehio was later ejected for shaking his head at first base Jeremie Rehak. Former Yankee farm Carlos Narváez hit the green monster long game in ten innings, and Tim Hill swallowed his fourth goodbye loss of the season.

In the Yankees' home clash last week, Judge was also hit three times by Crochett. In this game, the Red Sox left shot in the first eight innings to block the line and get a chance to close the door, but was finally hit hard by Judge.

Ryan Yarbrough bottomed out: 4.2 innings conceded 1 point and 4 An, clearing the previous 8-point loss against the Red Sox. Ceddanne Rafaela hit a well-timed hit in the second inning to give the Red Sox the lead.
