The New York Yankees and Boston Red Sox share a long-standing rivalry that peaked during the late-'90s and early-2000s when both teams competed fiercely for the title of AL East and World Series champions. In a specific game during the 2000 season, the Yankees struggled after Jason Grimsley stepped in as a starter due to an injury to Orlando Hernández, leading to a challenging situation against the Red Sox, who initially built a strong lead with timely hits and strategic plays before the Yankees began to fight back.
The rivalry between the New York Yankees and Boston Red Sox is one that lives in infamy and will continue to do so.
Despite both teams being quiet in the first two innings, the Red Sox capitalized early and put Grimsley in a tough situation in the top of the third.
