Max Fried's valuable Yankees streak ends as gem is outdone by Red Sox starter

Try it free BOSTON — Unless Max Fried was going to pick up a bat, there was not much more he could have done to help the Yankees on Sunday afternoon at Fenway Park. But the left-hander, who had been especially good when pitching after a Yankees loss, was still left beating himself up essentially for not being perfect in a 2-0 loss to the Red Sox in which he gave up just two runs across seven innings. 'The way I see it is I needed to come out and be a little bit better and be able to match [Red Sox starter Brayan Bello],' Fried said. 'He was throwing a lot of zeros and in a game like that, I got to come out and be better and match him for those zeros.' Bello stifled the Yankees across seven shutout innings while Fried gave up a single run in the first inning and another in the fifth. Max Fried reacts during the Yankees-Red Sox game on June 15, 2025. Corey Sipkin for the NY POST Entering Sunday, the Yankees were 8-0 in Fried's starts following a loss. He had given up just five earned runs in 54 innings during those starts. But they could not rely on Fried alone Sunday as their bats went silent. 'Gave us seven strong, he did everything he needed to do to give us a chance to win a ballgame,' manager Aaron Boone said. In the bottom of the first, after Fried had erased Anthony Volpe's fielding error by getting a double play ball, Romy Gonzalez extended the inning with a triple to right field. Trevor Story blooped a single to left to bring him in for the 1-0 lead. Rafael Devers doubled the lead in the fifth inning, sneaking a solo home run just over the Green Monster. Fried said his 94 mph fastball missed the location he wanted — J.C. Escarra was set up on the inside edge and instead the pitch caught too much of the plate, though the lefty said he 'didn't hate where it ended up.' Max Fried pitches during the Yankees-Red Sox game on June 15, 2025. AP 'Put it in a spot where a really good hitter was able to hit the ball hard enough,' Fried said. 'If I locate that in the area I want, I think the result's probably a little bit better.' Fried, who scattered six hits and two walks while striking out nine on a season-high 106 pitches, finished the day with a 1.89 ERA. 'I would say it's a good club over there,' he said. 'They're putting together really good at-bats and seem to have a really good plan. They were able to get two runs and made me work all day. A lot of deep counts. It was definitely a good battle.' Giancarlo Stanton spent Sunday at Yankee Stadium, with Angels pitchers loaded up on the Trajekt pitching machine to simulate the arms he will be facing this week when he comes off the injured list. The Yankees expect to activate Stanton on either Monday or Tuesday to make his season debut after missing the first two and a half months of the season with tendinitis in both elbows. The Yankees are 8-11 against the AL East and 34-16 against every other team

Ben Rice adds to Yankees' brutal baserunning woes with costly blunder
Access the Yankees beat like never before Join Post Sports+ for exciting subscriber-only features, including real-time texting with Greg Joyce about the inside buzz on the Yankees. Try it free BOSTON — For a team struggling to score runs all weekend, the Yankees only made matters worse against the Red Sox with some shaky baserunning that cost them again in Sunday's 2-0 loss. This time, the culprit was Ben Rice, who was caught breaking too early while trying to steal third in the top of the third inning. He had singled to right with one out in the third and moved to second on Cody Bellinger's two-out infield single. With Jazz Chisholm Jr. at the plate, Rice headed toward third, but before starter Brayan Bello began his pitching motion. Bellow whirled, threw behind Rice, to shortstop Trevor Story, who made the easy throw to nail Rice at third to end the inning. Ben Rice reacts during the Yankees-Red Sox on June 15, 2025. Corey Sipkin for the NY POST The Yankees have succeeded with double steals during the season — including one Wednesday in Kansas City that Rice started — and Rice thought there was a shot of one Sunday. 'I just kind of sensed that he was falling into a rhythm,'' Rice said of Bello. 'I thought I had a shot to get two guys in scoring position there. But, unfortunately, he got the timing perfect there.' Aaron Boone didn't mind the idea, but he didn't like the execution. '[Rice] is pretty adept at picking his spots there with two outs,' Boone said. 'We've got the trail runner [Bellinger] coming, but you've got to be more certain than that. That's a play you can't get caught like that on a pickoff play there. That one obviously stung us a little bit when we had a little rally going.' The miscue robbed the Yankees of one of their only chances, as they got just one more runner in scoring position the rest of the day. Worse, it came a day after Jasson Domínguez made an even worse mistake on the bases in Saturday's loss, when he lost track of the count and got caught between second and third during a Trent Grisham at-bat. Domínguez thought Grisham had struck out and was tagged out at third. Boone again pushed back on the notion that Anthony Volpe erred by getting thrown out attempting to steal third in the 10th inning of Friday's loss, but in a series in which the Yankees got almost nothing going offensively, each was costly.

Yankees vs. Red Sox prediction: Garrett Crochet can't handle bombers on Friday
Gambling content 21+. The New York Post may receive an affiliate commission if you sign up through our links. Read our editorial standards for more information. Yankees-Red Sox at Fenway Park will always have a mystique about it, even when Boston isn't playing its best. The Red Sox (34-36) are fourth in the American League East, a whopping 9.5 games behind the first-place Yankees, who are among the World Series favorites this season. The Alex Cora-led Sox did take two of three from their bitter rivals last week in a series in the Bronx, so there is some reason for positivity, as their lineup is among the best in the league. Things have been extremely rough on the starting rotation, with seemingly none of their perceived upgrades from the offseason performing up to standard in 2025. Starters Lucas Giolito and Walker Buehler have been borderline disasters up until this point, and tonight's starter, Garrett Crochet (6-4, 2.35 ERA), can only do so much. In a rematch of last week's matchup, it's Ryan Yarbrough matching up with Crochet, but there's a bit of a different wrinkle to the lineup. Garrett Crochet is the reason the Red Sox are favored on Friday. IMAGN IMAGES via Reuters Connect Boston is sitting star outfielder Jarren Duran on Friday night, and rookie infielder Marcelo Mayer, who is coming off a two-homer performance, is also riding the pine. It's a strange move to have all of those guys sitting even against the left-pitching Yarbrough. All things being considered, I disagree with the lineup card for Friday's AL East tilt and would prefer to back the Yankees as underdogs. The Yankees are currently sitting at +123 on the moneyline, which would be the third-longest price on the Pinstripes this season. They closed +160 against the Dodgers on June 1, and +155 against the Tigers back on April 8. Learn all you need to know about MLB Betting I don't view the Red Sox in the same ballpark (pun intended) as either of those teams, and I'll happily take the underdog price on the better team.

Red Sox SS Marcelo Mayer blast first home run vs. Yankees
The post Red Sox SS Marcelo Mayer blast first home run vs. Yankees appeared first on ClutchPoints. Marcelo Mayer picked quite the stage for his first big league blast. The No. 8 prospect in baseball, per MLB Pipeline, launched his first career home run Friday night under the bright lights of Yankee Stadium — a no-doubt solo shot that put the Boston Red Sox on the board in an eventual 9-6 loss to the rival Yankees. It was a bittersweet milestone in Mayer's young career, but one that won't be forgotten anytime soon. Advertisement Batting in the top of the fifth, Mayer turned on a 1-1 fastball from Yankees right-hander Will Warren and drove it 410 feet to right-center. The exit velocity was a strong 103.3 mph, and Statcast data confirmed it would've left the yard in every MLB park except Oracle Park in San Francisco. He admired the shot briefly before beginning his first home run trot in the Majors. The blast came with Boston trailing 7-0, part of yet another early collapse that's plagued the club this season. Still, Mayer's big moment gave the Red Sox a jolt — and a glimpse into what the future might hold. Marcelo Mayer goes deep at Yankee Stadium in Red Sox loss Brett Davis-Imagn Images Twelve seasons ago, another highly touted Red Sox shortstop prospect, Xander Bogaerts, also hit his first MLB homer at Yankee Stadium. Mayer, who's starting at third base during his rookie campaign, has drawn similar expectations as a franchise cornerstone. While he's currently filling in for the injured Alex Bregman, the natural shortstop is expected to slide back to his usual position before long. Advertisement Mayer's homer was the first spark in a late Red Sox comeback attempt. Rafael Devers later added a two-run shot in the seventh, but Boston's early hole proved too deep. The loss marked their ninth defeat in the last 12 games, and more importantly, it raised an already ugly trend: the Red Sox now have a 7.06 first-inning ERA, second-worst in the league behind only the Rockies. Starter Walker Buehler gave up five runs before recording an out in the first inning and allowed seven total (five earned) in just two innings. A three-run homer by Jazz Chisholm Jr. and a two-run blast by Anthony Volpe did the early damage. Defensive miscues — including a throwing error by Mayer — added fuel to the fire. Despite the team's struggles, Mayer's emergence remains a silver lining. His smooth swing, poise under pressure, and power potential offer hope for a Red Sox squad still searching for consistency. The sold-out Yankee Stadium crowd of 46,783 witnessed a rivalry series opener that had everything — power, mistakes, and a prospect announcing his presence with authority. Mayer may be just getting started, but his first homer in the Bronx already etched his name into Red Sox-Yankees lore.
