Yankees Raise Rally Flag, Beat Boston, 3-2
The Boston Red Sox got a sterling performance from pitcher Chad Bettis, but the Yankees still prevailed, 3-2. Bettis was named the player of the game in a losing cause. He threw 7 innings of shutout ball. The Red Sox fall to 4-8 and continue their uninspiring start to the 2018 season.

Had Buster Posey not delivered a key base hit in the top of the eighth, the outcome might have been different. Instead, with two down and runners on 1st and 3rd, Posey hit a run-scoring single. That made the score 3-2, in favor of the Yankees.

"We'll keep playing hard and let the chips fall where they may," said New York manager Temp GM.
