They teased some late life, but outside of a solo home run from Josh Donaldson, the Yankees offense did not provide much of a punch in a 3-2 loss to the Red Sox in The Bronx.
With two outs in the ninth inning, the Yankees tried to mount one last rally with back-to-back singles from Billy McKinney and Gleyber Torres off Red Sox closer Kenley Jansen.
And while Boston entered the weekend having lost five of its past six and in last place of the dog fight that is the AL East, it spoiled a Friday night for the sellout crowd of 46,007. Bauers came up throwing, but his attempt to throw out Devers was on the first-base side of home plate, allowing the Red Sox to take a 1-0 lead.
DJ LeMahieu, who entered the night in a 9-for-62 slump over his past 15 games, got a cameo in the leadoff spot and delivered a pair of singles in his first two at-bats.
