More than six months after the New York Yankees and Boston Red Sox last saw each other, the outcome was exactly the same.

The Red Sox's 2025 season ended with a 4-0 loss to the Yankees in Game 3 of the AL Wild Card Series at Yankee Stadium. Their first meeting of 2026 ended the same way, with New York beating Boston 4-0 at Fenway Park.

Connelly Early was the losing pitcher in both games, although it's hard to blame him when he hasn't gotten any run support.

The Red Sox have now lost three straight games against the Yankees dating back to last year. Their offense has been the main reason why, as they've scored just three runs on 15 hits in 27 innings during that time.

Going back a bit further, Boston has lost six of its last eight games against New York. Again, that's largely due to the offense, as the Red Sox have scored three runs or less in 10 of their last 13 games against the Bronx Bombers.
