— Domingo Germán was simply dominating the Boston Red Sox. Never more so than in the seventh inning, when the Yankees right-hander struck out stars J.D. Martinez, Rafael Devers, Xander Bogaerts and rookie Jarren Duran.
Domingo Germán was not going to go much longer than 90 pitches today. Aaron Boone said that he was already in the “danger zone,” since he was not completely stretched out. It was not a consideration to have him continue to pitch in the 8th inning after the no-hitter bid was over.
Aaron Boone on the Yankees 5-4 loss today after no-hitting the Red Sox going into the 8th inning and leading 4-0: "Really tough one, obviously. A tough one that we got to get past, leading into an off day, and a huge series coming up with Tampa. Another extremely tough loss.”
