Josh Hart added an NBA championship<\/a> to his resume this summer.<\/p>\n

This fall, it seems as if he wants to make another addition: big league manager.<\/p>\n

The Knicks star chimed in on the state of the Yankees-Red Sox wild-card series<\/a> on Wednesday night as the Bronx Bombers blew the doors open in the bottom of the sixth inning of Game 2. <\/p>\n

Hart slammed the Red Sox for their decision to intentionally walk Ben Rice \u2014 with a runner on second and a base open \u2014 to face Cody Bellinger.<\/p>\n

Manager Chad Tracy\u2019s move did not pay off, to say the least. <\/p>\n

Bellinger skied a high drive into right, clearing the short porch in right field for a three-run homer to extend the Yankees\u2019 lead to 8-1 (before Boston added a run on a solo shot from Nick Sogard in the top of the seventh).<\/p>\n

Hart, in a series of posts on X, was excited as the Yankees ran up the score and looked to be nearing a sweep.<\/p>\n

New York Knicks champion Josh Hart throws out the first pitch before game two of a doubleheader between the New York Yankees and the Baltimore Orioles at Yankee Stadium in the Bronx, N.Y., Friday, Sept. 25, 2026. Robert Sabo for NY Post<\/p>\n

Hart was in The Bronx just last week when he threw out the first pitch before the Yankees took on the Orioles in the nightcap of their doubleheader on Friday. He and teammate Jalen Brunson also threw out first pitches<\/a> in mid-June shortly after they helped end the Knicks\u2019 53-year NBA title drought.<\/p>\n

The Yankees, who had lost three straight playoff series to the Red Sox entering 2025, are on the precipice of knocking out Boston for the second straight season in the wild-card round. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Josh Hart added an NBA championship to his resume this summer.
