Yankees defeat Red Sox 6-0 following controversial catch ruling in New York

The New York Yankees defeated the Boston Red Sox 6-0 on Sunday at Yankee Stadium to conclude their four-game series. A critical turning point occurred in the fifth inning when an apparent diving catch by Boston center fielder Ceddanne Rafaela on a line drive from Jazz Chisholm Jr. was ruled a hit following a replay review. Umpires determined the ball touched the grass before Rafaela secured it, keeping the inning alive. New York capitalized on the ruling as Paul Goldschmidt hit a two-run single and Heliot Ramos followed with a three-run home run to build a 5-0 lead. Boston finished the game with four hits and failed to score, marking their third shutout loss in five games. The win secured the season series for the Yankees, providing them a tiebreaker advantage over the Red Sox in the American League standings.
