Yankee Stadium was hopping Monday night. That is, until the Red Sox opened the floodgates.
Boston throttled the New York Yankees 16-1 in Game 3 of the American League Division Series, taking a 2-1 lead in the series.
Thanks to a seven-run fourth inning, the Sox were leading 10-0 entering the fourth, sucking the life out of the home crowd. As such, most of the stadium was eerily quiet during the back half of the game, with the crowd gradually thinning out as the night drew on.
In the final minutes of the game, Boston Bruins star winger David Pastrnak weighed in on the game with a nice little roast.
Seeing Yankee Stadium empty before the game is over is phenomenal. #DoDamage

Well done.
The Red Sox will have a chance to try and quiet the crowd in The Bronx once more Tuesday as they look to eliminate the Yankees in Game 4.
