Back at another old haunt today for Astros vs White Sox in the AL Wild Card series. Follow along for live updates via @usatodaysports.usatoday.com

Because of course it’s the Yankees, not only the Red Sox’ archrival but also their opposition at the three most significant inflection points of their past year. It was always the Yankees. Full story from the Bronx, previewing “a real slobberknocker”: www.bostonglobe.com/2026/09/28/s...

Today I watched the Red Sox v. Yankees wild card game and the Mexico v. Peru football match at the same time while occasionally checking Bluesky for Schmitt dunks. So I guess I know which one I am.

Welp, I see you focused your energies on the Bruins home opener. Thank you for that, especially the JJ Peterka goal (filthy). As for the Red Sox/Yankees—ahem, harrumph, haunted-haberdashery, hooboy, etc.!

nypost.com/2026/09/30/s... With other choices, Aaron Boone played it straight by going with his best in wild-card G1. It was Cam Schlittler who threw a curve for the Yankees and against the Red Sox.

Incredible stats: * tonight’s 9-0 result is the second shutout in Yankees-Red Sox history (first was in 2025!) * Ben Rice’s 6 RBIs tie the franchise record for a postseason game (1960 World Series Game 3)

"the only lasting 2026 AL Wild Card Series i have is when the Sox at Astros game came on and i said "the Astros are 81-81 and both teams are doing bullpen games" and my friend's uncles got so mad that he had to go in the backyard"

Cam Schlittler pitched another playoff gem against the Boston Red Sox, and Ben Rice also burned their hometown team with a late grand slam and six RBIs as the New York Yankees opened the Wild Card Series rematch with a victory.

#RedSox set roster for 3-game AL Wild Card series vs #Yankees, which starts tonight. Roster features the return of Garrett Crochet. First postseason roster for Roman Anthony, Jake Bennett, Alec Gamboa, Wyatt Olds, Erik Miller. Game 1 at 8:00 ET/5:00 PT on NBC/Peacock.

had a dream ben rice hit a grand slam and the yankees beat the red sox. oh wait, that really happened!

Hey but did you know the Red Sox spend almost $100 million less on payroll than the Yankees and still made the playoffs so who's the real winner?

FINAL: #Yankees 9 (1-0), #RedSox (0-1) Cam Schlittler and Ben Rice dominated the game. Boston had one batter reach second base. No update yet on Roman Anthony Chad Tracy speaks soon. More notes: mn-fieldnotes.ghost.io/yankees-wi/

It's funny that no series previews can really commit to their hand wringing about the Astros hosting the wild card round because the White Sox were all of 3 games better. The AL just stank this year!
