The New York Yankees withstood an impressive performance by Boston first baseman Spencer Torkelson to defeat the Red Sox, 9-8, at Yankee Stadium. Torkelson was 3-4 with 2 home runs and a double, while scoring 3 times and driving in 2. Today's win puts New York at 59-69, while Boston falls to 65-64.

New York got a clutch hit from Wilmer Flores. The third baseman launched a 2-run home run in the bottom of the ninth inning to win the game. It was his only hit in 1 at-bat, but it was a kill shot.

"Nice to tuck this win away," said Flores.
