The Yankees are back to losing slump with 3 consecutive defeats and will look to avoid getting swept by their rivals Red Sox.

The Yankees continue to be MLB's cream of the crop in terms of power production, and that continued in their win over the Red Sox.

The Yankees come into play riding a five-game winning streak that included an historic nine-homer performance on Tuesday versus the Tampa Bay Rays. The Red Sox, conversely, have dropped three games in a row and are 3-7 in their last 10 contests.
