The New York Yankees defeated their sworn rival Boston Red Sox on Friday night, 9-6, taking advantage of a five-run first inning which kept Boston at bay for the duration of the game. While the Yankees’ win on Friday was smooth-sailing for the most part,

Yankees shortstop Anthony Volpe left Friday night's game against the Red Sox in the fourth inning with a bruised left elbow, two innings after he was hit by an 88.2 mph Walker Buehler pitch. X-rays and a CT scan were negative.

Still, the team is playing it safe, with Oswald Peraza expected to cover shortstop duties for the foreseeable future. Oddly, Jazz Chisholm, who is coming off a great Friday night, was also out of the lineup Saturday with Pablo Reyes playing this base.
