Red Sox in Wild Card Chase | New York Yankees News

The Red Sox just lost a brutal three-of-four series to the Yankees, dropping them four games back in the Wild Card race with only 25 games left — but there’s silver lining: Roman Anthony and Trevor Story returned Sunday, combining for four of Boston’s seven hits. That loss also means Boston now trails New York in the season series, making it tougher to close the gap without facing them again. Still, they hold a five-game lead over the Guardians for the second Wild Card spot, setting up a potential playoff rematch with the Yankees. With October looming, the focus shifts to player health — resting banged-up guys while maximizing wins is key. Anthony’s expected at leadoff and DH, Story back at shortstop, and Kiner-Falefa could fill in at first if Contreras stays out. The goal? Stay healthy, stay competitive, and prepare for October.
