The Boston Red Sox kicked off their four-game set with the New York Yankees on Thursday night with a bang.
After a first-inning base hit and walk from Mookie Betts and Rafael Devers, respectively, Xander Bogaerts came up to put the Sox on the board with a three-run homer over the Green Monster, giving the Red Sox a 3-0 lead in the early going.
