So when Ben Rice crushed a solo home run on Thursday night against the Boston Red Sox at Yankee Stadium, it tied the game and one run apiece –– but the Yankees wound up losing 6-3. That cut New York's lead over Boston to just a half game for second place in the American League East Standings, as they trail the Toronto Blue Jays by 4.5 games.

The panic that was coming from the Bronx is starting to quiet down after the New York Yankees made history on Tuesday night in a 13-3 win over the Tampa Bay Rays.

Lane Thomas knocked in the go-ahead run, while David Fry hit a three-run triple as part of a six-run 12th inning, to lead the Cleveland Guardians over the New York Yankees in the longest game of the MLB season.
