The Red Sox are moving on.
Facing the rival Yankees, Boston jumped all over AL Cy Young candidate Gerrit Cole for two homers in the first three innings to take an early 3-0 lead. A stellar outing from Nathan Eovaldi and shutdown performance from the bullpen kept the Yankee bats in check. New York scored solo home runs in the sixth and ninth innings, but it wasn't enough as the Red Sox won the American League wild-card game 6-2 to move on to the ALDS.
They will face AL East rivals and the top team in the American League, the Rays.

Xander Bogaerts took a center-cut changeup to dead center for a two-run homer in the bottom of the first that sparked the Red Sox and put the team up early. Two innings later, Kyle Schwarber led off the bottom of the third with a solo homer to right. A single and a walk later chased Cole from the game.
Eovaldi was dialed in from there: He pitched 5.1 innings and allowed just one run off a solo homer from Anthony Rizzo — one of four hits allowed — while striking out eight.
The Red Sox bullpen shut down New York from there. Ryan Brasier, Tanner Houck, Hansel Robles and Garrett Whitlock allowed just one more run, a homer in the top of the ninth off the bat of Joey Gallo, on two hits, no walks and three strikeouts across the final 3.2 innings of work.
The Boston bats kept going, however. Alex Verdugo doubled in the bottom of the sixth to drive in a run and respond to Rizzo's blast; he later singled in the seventh to drive in two and break open the game at 6-1.

9:12 p.m.: That's the end of the night for Cole. He will leave the third having thrown 50 pitches and retired nobody in the third inning. One former Pirate pitcher will give way to the other as Clay Holmes comes in for the Yankees.
9:11 p.m.: Devers walks for the second time today. Runners on first and second for Bogaerts with nobody out in the third.
9:07 p.m.: Hernandez hits a slow-roller up the line that Cole can't reach in time. He's on first with an infield single.
9:06 p.m. Red Sox scoring play: Schwarber strikes Cole again, this time in a different uniform. Schwarber launches one 435 feet to right field for a solo shot to lead off the bottom half of the third. Red Sox extend lead to 3-0.

8:40 p.m. End Top 2nd: First-base umpire says Kyle Higashioka went around on strike three, and Eovaldi strands Urshela at first.
8:38 p.m.: Former Blue Jays pitcher Marcus Stroman has some thoughts on what it's like to face Bogaerts.
Wow. Bogaerts. He’s been raking against me for years. Lol he doesn’t have any holes in that swing. You have to expand way off the plate from pitch one with quality pitches. His bat path allows him to cover any velocity/off-speed in the zone while maximizing on the bad pitches!
— Marcus Stroman (@STR0) October 6, 2021
8:37 p.m.: Gio Urshela hits a dribbler just in front of home plate that neither Eovaldi nor Kevin Plawecki can field in time, and he's aboard with the Yankees' second two-out hit.

8:17 p.m. End Top 1st: Third-base umpire says Joey Gallo went around for the third out of the inning.
8:15 p.m.: Statcast has that ball leaving the bat at 113.8 mph and traveling 345 feet.
8:14 p.m.: Giancarlo Stanton crushes a pitch to left and thought it was gone, but it bounced off the Green Monster and he has to settle for a loud single.
8:13 p.m.: Aaron Judge flies out to right, and it has taken Eovaldi just three pitches to set down the first two Yankees.
