Yankees' Aaron Boone Makes Anthony Volpe Announcement After Red Sox Game originally appeared on Athlon Sports. The New York Yankees defeated the Boston Red Sox on Friday, securing a 9-6 win in the series opener. It was an impressive offensive showing for the Yankees, who furthered their lead atop the American League in runs scored.

Boston made its first run at the Yankees in the sixth when Warren lost the strike zone after five solid innings. He gave up a leadoff triple by Jarren Duran and then issued three walks around Wilyer Abreu's sacrifice fly, and manager Aaron Boone had seen enough.

Anthony Volpe homered in a five-run first inning, then came out after he was hit by a pitch on the left elbow as the New York Yankees beat the Boston Red Sox 9-6 in the AL rivals’ first meeting this year.
