Cody Bellinger drives in 4 as Yankees cap one-sided sweep of Red Sox

Cody Bellinger drove in four runs to lead the New York Yankees to a 9-2 victory over the Boston Red Sox on Wednesday, completing a two-game sweep of their American League wild-card series in New York. Bellinger hit an RBI single in the fifth inning and added a three-run home run during a decisive six-run sixth inning.

Starting pitcher Max Fried earned the win, allowing one run on three hits across six innings with six strikeouts. The Yankees advanced to face the top-seeded Tampa Bay Rays in the AL Division Series despite missing Aaron Judge due to a calf strain.
