The Boston Red Sox beat the New York Yankees, 12-6, at Fenway Park. Patrick Vitzhum, in particular, was impressive. He hit 2 home runs. He scored 3 times and drove in 4.

Dan Combs, who finished 2nd in the AL in slugging percentage with .545 in 2022, chipped in a grand slam home run for Boston in the bottom of the fourth. For the game, the catcher had 2 hits in 5 at-bats with 1 home run, 1 single, 1 run scored, and 4 runs batted in.

"I'm trying to see the ball big, see the ball up in the zone and put the barrel on it," Vitzhum told the Boston Daily News.
