AP Photo\/Charles Krupa\t<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">BOSTON (AP) \u2014 Caleb Durbin broke a tie with a two-run homer in the fifth inning, Connelly Early allowed two runs over six innings and the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.boston.com\/tag\/boston-red-sox\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Boston<\/a> Red Sox beat the New York Yankees 6-3 on Thursday night.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Red Sox closer Aroldis Chapman bounced back after two losses for his 15th save of the season. Nate Eaton and Ceddanne Rafaela each drove in a run for the Red Sox, who beat the Yankees at Fenway Park for the first time this season. New York swept a three-game series at Fenway back in April.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Durbin\u2019s homer came off Yankees starter Cam Schlittler (8-4) and came one day after his left pinkie was dislocated against Colorado. The third baseman was in starting lineup and sent a shot into the first row of the Green Monster seats for his fifth homer this month.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Early (7-5) struck out a season-high nine. He allowed five hits and walked two.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Jose Caballero homered for New York.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Schlittler lowered his ERA from 1.71 to 1.62 but left with New York trailing 4-2. The right-hander allowed four runs \u2014 none were earned \u2014 on five hits while striking out nine.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">New York took a 2-0 lead into the fifth inning courtesy of an RBI single by Jasson Dominguez and Caballero\u2019s eighth homer. Durbin\u2019s blast capped off the Red Sox four-run rally in the fifth, which was aided by one of four errors committed by the Yankees.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Red Sox endured a rocky travel schedule involving their departing charter flight from Denver that didn\u2019t land back in Boston until 6 a.m.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Red Sox pitching coach Andrew Bailey was ejected by first-base umpire Tyler Jones in the ninth.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Up next<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Yankees will send RHP Will Warren (7-2, 3.45) to the mound Friday night. The Red Sox will counter with LHP Payton Tolle (3-4, 3.08).<\/p>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\tGet the latest Boston sports news<\/p>\n<p class=\"m-generic-cta__subtitle\">Receive updates on your favorite Boston teams, straight from our newsroom to your inbox.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Boston Red Sox Caleb Durbin\u2019s homer came off Yankees starter Cam Schlittler (8-4) and came one day after&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":726751,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[65],"tags":[363,99],"class_list":["post-726750","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-mlb","tag-mlb","tag-sports"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/726750","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=726750"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/726750\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/726751"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=726750"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=726750"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=726750"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
