How to watch to today's Boston Red Sox vs New York Yankees MLB game: Live stream, regional networks, team news, start time

Aaron Judge is closing in on his 99th RBI of the season as the New York Yankees (80-65) get ready to square off with the Boston Red Sox (81-66) on Friday night.

New York dropped two of three to the Detroit Tigers earlier this week, falling 2-12 and 1-11 before salvaging the finale with a decisive 9-3 victory. In that win, the Yankees broke a 1-1 tie in the second inning and then rattled off eight unanswered runs to put the game out of reach. 

Boston, meanwhile, comes in after taking two of three from Oakland, with 7-0 and 6-0 wins before a 5-4 walk-off loss in the finale. The Red Sox erased a ninth-inning deficit in that game, only to see the A’s snatch it back in the bottom half. Before that setback, Boston had strung together three straight victories.
