On the other side, the Red Sox have their own arsenal ready. Third baseman Rafael Devers has shown commendable skill, hitting .500 with one home run and three RBIs in their last outing. Devers' ability to perform under pressure makes him a critical player for Boston, especially when facing a formidable opponent like the Yankees.


Another Yankee making waves is outfielder Aaron Judge. Despite a quieter performance compared to Soto, Judge's presence on the field cannot be underestimated. His strategic play and ability to capitalize on crucial moments make him a significant threat.
