BOSTON (Interstat) — Luis Gil and two relievers combined on a four-hit shutout, Giancarlo Stanton drove in three runs and the New York Yankees blanked the Boston Red Sox 4-0 on Tuesday night at Fenway Park.

A crowd of 34,391 watched the Yankees (14-9) win their fourth straight game and hand the Red Sox (9-14) their eighth loss in their last 11 contests. The game was played in a crisp 2 hours, 43 minutes.

The most important sequence of the game arrived in the top of the sixth inning, breaking open what had been a tight pitchers’ duel. Leading 1-0, the Yankees put two men on with one out against Boston starter Connelly Early. Stanton then delivered the decisive blow, launching a double to deep center field that scored both Amed Rosario and Aaron Judge. That two-run hit stretched the lead to 3-0 and chased Early from the game, effectively sealing the outcome given Gil’s dominance.

Gil (1-1) was brilliant in earning his first win of the season. The right-hander worked seven scoreless innings, allowing just three hits and two walks while striking out four. He efficiently navigated the Boston lineup, inducing three double plays to erase any potential threats. The Red Sox only advanced a runner to second base against him twice.

Early (1-1) took the loss for Boston, charged with three runs on five hits over 5 1/3 innings. He walked three and struck out four. The Red Sox bullpen, specifically Jack Anderson, allowed an additional run in the eighth inning when Cody Bellinger scored on a Randal Grichuk double.

Stanton provided all the early offense New York would need, crushing a solo home run, his third of the season, over the Green Monster in left field in the second inning. His sixth-inning double then provided crucial breathing room. The Yankees totaled 10 hits, with Grichuk, Jazz Chisholm Jr., and José Caballero each collecting two. Judge went 1-for-3 with two walks and a run scored.

Boston’s offense was listless all evening. They managed just four singles, with Willson Contreras, Ceddanne Rafaela, Carlos Narváez, and Marcelo Mayer recording the hits. Mayer’s second-inning ground-rule double was their only extra-base hit. The Red Sox went 0-for-4 with runners in scoring position and left five men on base.

Following Gil’s departure, Yankees relievers Ian Hamilton and David Bednar each pitched a perfect inning to close out the victory. Bednar struck out Jarren Duran, who had entered as a pinch-hitter, to end the game.

The victory continued a strong stretch for the Yankees, who have won seven of their last nine games. The loss dropped the Red Sox five games below .500 and highlighted their ongoing offensive struggles; they have been shut out three times this season.

The game defied the pregame projections from Interstat, which had simulated a 6-5 Yankees victory and gave New York a 52.6% probability to win. The combined four runs fell well under the over/under line of 8.5, though the Yankees did cover the -1.5 spread.

The two rivals continue their series Wednesday night at Fenway Park.
