After averaging 4.23 runs in April, Boston is averaging 6.50 runs in May, including scoring 26 runs in a three-game set with Cleveland. That increase in runs per game (2.27) is the second-largest in baseball, behind only Colorado (2.57).

The Yankees hit three home runs against Chris Paddack on Wednesday, all by righties, en route to a 7-0 win. Chris Paddack entered that game holding right-handed hitters to a .108 average with one extra-base hit. New York's right-handed hitters have hit 74 home runs, second most in MLB behind the Astros (77).

Chris Sale has a 1.87 ERA in 105.2 innings against the Yankees in his career. That is the lowest ERA by any pitcher against New York in the live-ball era (minimum 100 innings pitched). He got the loss in his last start against the Yankees, however, going 5.0 inning and allowing four earned runs.

J.D. Martinez has posted a 1.185 OPS at Yankee Stadium since 2015, the third-highest OPS by any player against any park (minimum 70 plate appearances). Only Mike Trout's 1.311 OPS at T-Mobile Park (Mariners) and Khris Davis' 1.226 OPS at Globe Life Park (Rangers) have a higher mark in any park.

Gleyber Torres homered on Wednesday, his 14th of the year and sixth since May 20. The last AL player 22 and younger with as many home runs before June 1 was Alex Rodriguez in 1998 (20).

Mookie Betts is hitting .189 against J.A. Happ in his career, his third-worst batting average against any pitcher in his career (minimum 20 plate appearances). Last season Betts slashed .368/.471/.736 versus southpaws, but is slashing just .214/.290/.268 versus lefties in 2019.

While the Boston Red Sox own a winning record, there is a sizable gap between them and the New York Yankees in the American League East Division.
The Red Sox get their next chance to close the gap with the Yankees on Friday for a three-game series after the forecast of heavy rain at Yankee Stadium led to the postponement of a four-game series opener on Thursday. The postponed game will be part of a day-night doubleheader on Aug. 3.

Front-running Yankees ready for rival Red Sox

NEW YORK (AP)  Don't let DJ LeMahieu's professional demeanor fool you.
''He's out there to rip your heart out,'' New York Yankees manager Aaron Boone said, ''and he plays with an edge.''
