The Boston Red Sox showed their true offensive power, hitting five home runs to beat the New York Yankees 11-7 on Sunday night. No matter how well Aaron Judge played in his two-homer game and showed how great he had been all season, the Boston Red Sox’s exceptional hitting was too tough for the Bronx Bombers.

Carlos Narváez was the star of the game by hitting a three-run homer in the sixth inning that changed the game’s outcome in the Boston Red Sox’s favour. This win confirmed the Red Sox as the top team in the series, as they won two out of their first three matches with their rival this year.

Carlos Narvaez's revenge performance sparks Boston Red Sox offensive explosion

The former New York Yankee Carlos Narváez managed to lead the Boston Red Sox to a perfect revenge over his former team just months after being sent away by them.

In his limited play with New York last year, the new catcher made a big difference with a three-run home run against Carlos Rodón. Because of this key moment, the Boston Red Sox held a strong 5-3 lead and showed the clutch hitting that helped them win the game by 27 runs.

The offensive did not end just because of Narváez. Devers hit a home run, and the Red Sox’s hot rookie Campbell also hit a two-run shot to Yankee Stadium’s famous right field.

Abraham Toro and Trevor Story’s consecutive solo homers off Jonathan Loáisiga in the eighth inning were the nail in the coffin for the New York Yankees. Jarren Duran made it even worse by driving in two runs with a single, as the Boston Red Sox reached their biggest score at Yankee Stadium since 2005.

Aaron Judge's brilliance couldn't overcome New York Yankees' pitching struggles

Exactly why Aaron Judge is seen as a top hitter became clear, as he blasted two two-run homers that were his fourth multi-homer game this year and the 43rd of his career.

The Yankees’ star got a hit in the first inning from rookie Hunter Doobins and hit another in the ninth, keeping his impressive .396 batting average and putting him among the MVP candidates. Judge’s four RBIs proved that he could single-handedly help the New York Yankees stay in the game even when the opposing team scored a lot.Unfortunately, the pitchers on the New York Yankees were not able to match what Aaron Judge did on his own.

The first loss for starter Carlos Rodón since April 13 happened after he allowed five runs. The relief pitchers also had a hard time, as Jonathan Loáisiga has struggled since coming back from elbow surgery and has already allowed four home runs in nine games. Even though DJ LeMahieu’s homer in the fifth put the New York Yankees ahead 3-2, Boston did not stop attacking and managed to win the game.Boston Red Sox players will play on Monday against Tampa Bay, while the New York Yankees pitcher Max Fried goes against Kansas City on Tuesday.Also Read: Angels coach’s snack gesture for son on Mariners staff captures hearts across MLBThe Boston Red Sox's comprehensive victory serves as a reminder that in baseball's greatest rivalry, offensive firepower often trumps individual brilliance, setting the stage for an intriguing season-long battle between these American League East contenders.
