Red Sox Win in Extra Innings Umpiring Drama

The Boston Red Sox defeated the New York Yankees 2-1 in extra innings, with Garrett Crochet's pitching performance standing out. Aaron Judge tied the game in the ninth with a solo home run. In the 10th inning, Anthony Volpe was ruled out at third base after a replay review overturned the initial safe call, and DJ LeMahieu's near-fair hit down the first base line was upheld as foul. Both LeMahieu and manager Aaron Boone were ejected after vocally disputing the calls, later stating their remarks were not disrespectful or profane. Boone criticized the umpires for lacking 'courage' to overturn on-field decisions, fueling ongoing criticism of MLB umpiring. Boston secured the win with a walk-off hit in the 10th, further intensifying the Red Sox-Yankees rivalry.
